Tony Sirico Biography
Born: July 29, 1942
There's a reason Brooklyn-born Tony Sirico has such a knack for playing hoods: he used to be one. After doing some hard time for armed robbery, Sirico opted to give up crime and take a stab at acting. From the late '70s on, he made a career of playing mob thugs and crooked cops in such films as Fingers and GoodFellas. However, it was his performance as wise guy Paulie "Walnuts" Gaultieri on HBO's The_Sopranos that lifted Sirico from bit-player to acclaimed actor. Matthew Tobey, Rovi
