It was his iconic role as Paulie “Walnuts” Gaultieri in the critically acclaimed HBO mafia drama The Sopranos that made Sirico a household name. Sirico nailed the role of a conniving, morally bankrupt mobster who is only concerned with himself and his status among his underworld peers. #TheSopranos

Before the world knew him as mobster Paulie "Walnuts" Gaultieri, actor Tony Sirico grew up in Brooklyn living a life not that far removed from the one he portrayed on TV #TonySirico #TheSopranos #mafia
