Angelo Romanelli
- Actor
- Director
- Producer
Ever since he was 2 years old Angelo wanted to be an actor. Born in
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Martha and Angelo Romanelli Sr., Angelo
Romanelli grew up along with his brother Michael in Collingdale,
Pennsylvania. He attended St. Josephs elementary and Monsignor Bonner
all-male Catholic high school. He learned the meaning of hard work at a
young age from his father. He got his first job at age 12 and continued
to work as a landscaper for his grandfather Charles Kloss through high
school. While in 11th grade he had a son, Angelo Romanelli III. This
was to change his life forever, for the better. Learning responsibility
and the importance of goals at a young age he set his sights high and
decided to move 3000 miles away to attend University of Southern
California. He graduated with a degree in business emphasizing
international marketing and entrepreneur studies. After 109 interviews
Angelo decided to take a job as a corporate buyer, and hated it. He
took some time off to travel and upon the urging of his girlfriend
Rochelle saying "if you don't do it, you'll always regret not trying"
he decided to start a business. Using skills gained from USC, he opened
bUONgUSTO Italian Ice originally as a retail store then expanded to
include wholesaling and mobile locations. With the help of his family
the business continued to grow year after year but Angelo still felt he
was missing something. He realized it was because he walked away from
his dream of acting and, again upon the urging of Rochelle, he decided
to get back into it by auditioning for The Full Monty. He got the part
and hasn't looked back since continuing to take roles on TV, film and
stage. All the while he continues to train and work hard to make a
career out of his passion to entertain.
