Chazz Palminteri is an Academy Award nominated Actor/Writer/Director best known for his iconic play and film, A Bronx Tale. He started out pursuing his craft by studying at the Actor’s Studio with Lee Strasberg and quickly landed roles on Broadway, off-Broadway, and in television.
Well known for his unique ability to create the lovable tough guy Chazz wrote A Bronx Tale while a member at Theater West in LA. His Machiavellian fable was based on his childhood and life experiences growing up in his Italian – American Bronx neighborhood. Palminteri wrote the stage play and performed it as a one-man show in Los Angeles quickly becoming the hottest property in Hollywood since Rocky. Mr. Palminteri was offered over one million dollars to walk away from the project and with $200.00 left in the bank he refused. He wanted to play Sonny and write the screenplay however the studios were not willing to give an unknown a shot. Until one night when Robert DeNiro walked in to see the show and as they say ”the rest is history.” He then moved the production to a larger theater in New York City where it played to rave reviews and four sold-out months earning him nominations for the NewYork Outer Critics Circle Awards for both acting and writing. While in New York he completed the screenplay of A Bronx Tale and soon found himself starring opposite Robert DeNiro, who chose the script for his directorial debut.
Palminteri recently written and performed in A Bronx Tale the Musical for Broadway at the Longacre Theater, the latest incarnation of the Bronx Tale brand. After years of success on Broadway, the musical is touring across the country.
Chazz has more than 55 movies to his credit including The Usual Suspects, Bullets Over Broadway (Academy Award nomination), Analyze This, Hurlyburly, Mulholland Falls, Faithful (screenplay also written by Chazz Palminteri), Poolhall Junkies, The Perez Family, Jade, Diabolique, Down to Earth and A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints, Final Recourse, Mighty Fine, Yonkers Joe, Jolene, The Dukes and Legend starring Tom Hardy.
