About the Actor
Tony was born on August 25, 1973 in Dorchester, Massachusetts to the proud Greek parents Vlassi “Flash” and Jean Scarpelos. His early years were spent in restaurants, mostly sitting in the back kitchen on potato sacks by the ice machine watching "Flash" sling BLTs and cheeseburgers in downtown Boston. (Cheeburger! Cheeburger! No Coke, Pepsi!) His extended Greek family provided endless fodder for character studies, ranging from a bristly-mustached uncle who removed bottle caps with his teeth to an adopted homeless brother with no teeth who insisted he was being wrongly charged for the shooting of Adolf Hitler.
Tony further developed his innate talent with formal training at CP Casting in Boston, and later moved to Hollywood where he studied at the Beverly Hills Playhouse under Milton Katselas from 1999 to 2004. He’s done independent film, television, and commercial voice-over work and is excited about the diversity of creative projects currently on his radar.
