Biography

Born and raised in Boston, Tony wanted to be an Actor from the time he saw Diff'rent Strokes, the 80's TV show. He wanted to be Gary Coleman, the actor who portrayed Arnold Drummond. This dream led to a move to Los Angeles in 1999, during which he became friends with other struggling and upcoming Actors, Directors and Filmmakers. In 2003 Tony returned to Boston to be with his family in a time of need in 2003. However, not wanting to give up on acting, Tony worked with Boston Casting, which led to commercial work in a Register to Vote spot with Secretary of State Bill Galvin where he played a construction worker/ constituent and a summer of stand-in work for Denzel Washington in The Equalizer. On his own Tony secured speaking roles and co-producer credits on independent films such as Angels Around Me, Remnant and Boston Ballistic. He then went on to join The Roxbury Repertory Theatre and played Sgt. Waters in Charles Fuller's A Soldier's Play and several other stage productions.
