mainstream popularity in the late 1950s with a string of crossover singles that
ranked highly on the Billboard Pop

Darrow was born Anthony
Borgese and grew up in the East New York
section of Brooklyn.
Darrow had plenty of opportunity to observe would-be mobsters and their
attitudes while growing up in his neighborhood in Brooklyn. As a teenager he
gravitated towards show business, entering and winning talent shows while
working odd jobs. After ten years of singing in nightclubs, Darrow received an
offer to appear in what turned out to be a cult film, Street Trash.
He played a mobster in the film. Several months after Street Trash,
Darrow was contacted by the film director Martin
Scorsese. It turned out that Scorsese had seen Street Trash
and wanted him to audition for a role in Goodfellas.
He was successful, and was cast as the owner of the Bamboo Lounge, Sonny.
Darrow was also in the Woody Allen films Bullets over Broadway, Mighty
Aphrodite, Deconstructing Harry, Small Time
Crooks and Sweet and
Lowdown. In 1999, Darrow played a large role in Analyze This
with Robert De Niro and Billy Crystal.
The following year, he appeared in Mickey Blue
Eyes with Hugh Grant, and got another big role as mobster
Larry Barese
in the HBO
hit series The Sopranos, which he was on for the
entire series run (1999–2007). More recently, Darrow starred in the independent
film Lynch Mob. In June 2009, Darrow was charged with extortion in a
2004 incident. Along with Gambino crime family soldier Joseph
"Joey Boy" Orlando and associate Giovanni "Johnny"
Monteleone, Darrow was accused of ordering the maiming of a man in Monticello, New York who owed money to a loan shark.
Darrow and Orlando both pleaded guilty in federal court to these charges in
February, 2011 in exchange for a sentence of up to 33 months, however
Monteleone cooperated with the FBI. At sentencing, Darrow's attorney
successfully argued that Darrow's 50+ year history of community service,
medical condition, and lack of prior criminal history warranted a sentence of
house arrest, followed by a period of probation. Orlando was sentenced to 51
months in prison and Darrow received six months of house arrest.
