Ralph Macchio biograpy
Born Nov. 4, 1961 in Huntington, Long Island, NY to a devoted Italian family, Macchio began his career landing NY-based TV commercials. By 1980, he was landing roles in feature films, playing the "operator" Chooch in MAD magazine's "Up the Academy." Following its release, he joined the family drama series "Eight Is Enough" (ABC, 1977-1981) playing Betty Buckley's nephew, Jeremy, with hoodlum tendencies who needed a good straightening out by the Bradford Family. Macchio's energy added much needed life to the mild-mannered series, resulting in the teen's face smothered across every month's issues of Tiger Beat and Teen Beat. Although the show was canceled following his 1980-81 season, Macchio's work on "Eight" helped land him the lead in the CBS Afternoon Playhouse production, "Dangerous Company" (CBS, 1982). Macchio also starred in "The Three Wishes of Billy Grier" (ABC, 1984), playing a young man who asks for help so that he can do three things before he dies.
