Committed, Focused, and Dedicated, this seasoned actor's career has spanned over 30 years and counting. Born and raised in South Philly, Freddie's leading man looks as well as his many character roles has shown that he can be very convincing as a Mafia Don or a Catholic Priest. Just take a look at his resume to check off the many different roles he has been hired to play. Starting out as a Singer in a band with a range of three and half octaves, Freddie has been known to hit notes that even a bank couldn't cash. But at a young age he knew he was made to perform. To give you a little insight as to how well Freddie has performed on Stage, Television, and Film so well, this actor will tell you that "The hardest work you do in this life is the work you do on yourself". To prove this motto Freddie will tell you that you must study and research who you are and why you are in this role. His education is very impressive as well. Freddie has studied with the best in the business, including his very dear friend and Academy Award Nominee Chazz Palminteri. Also, he is a member of The Actors Gym started by Academy Award Winner (Crash) Bobby Moresco and Bruno Kirby (one of his dearest friends who has passed). The In Crowd written by Mark Rosenthal and Lawrence Konner was Freddie's breakout role alongside Joey "Pants" Pantoliano and Bruce Kirby who Freddie called his "West Coast Dad". A very unique acting style that you call your own is one that this actor has created and he is definitely one of a kind. From playing a Lawyer to a Gangster to a Loving Father and Husband, Freddie checks all of the boxes for being a star performer.
