show all Born in Cincinnati, Ohio to parents Anthony and Nancy Campanello on April 7, some would say the younger Anthony Campanello was a performer from jump street. At the age of three, Anthony could be seen mimicking the famous moves of Michael Jackson from the "Thriller" music video. Growing up, Anthony was a jock. He participated in baseball, basketball and football. He attended Cincinnati Moeller High School where he lettered on the nationally-ranked Moeller Crusader football team and was also a member of the school's wrestling team. After high school, he attended Bowling Green State University (Bowling Green, OH) where he majored in Psychology and The Arts. While at BGSU, he appeared in several stageplays, most notable, in the leading role of Brick in Tennessee Williams' "Cat On A Hot Tin Roof." He believes it was while doing that play in particular that he "caught the acting bug." After earning his college degree, Anthony found himself in Hollywood with several modeling assignments under his belt, including advertising campaigns for Abercrombie & Fitch and Gatorade. He went on to appear in such TV shows as "Nip/Tuck", "Next", "Smallville" and he also played actress Katie Holmes' boyfriend in "Dawson's Creek." He can also be seen in the role of Zach in the soon-to-be-released indie feature "Lost Dream" along side actors Patricia Richardson and Jeremy London as well as in a supporting role in the indie feature "Under The Gaydar." The role of Tony in "Redefining Normal" is the first starring film role for Anthony. In addition, he has been known to run in a number of marathons that benefit various children's charities. His LA actor training includes the Lesly Kahn Studio.
