Early Life
Vincent Curatola was born on August 16, 1953, in Englewood, New Jersey. During his youth, he worked as a paperboy, and he met musicians such as Dizzy Gillespie, Sarah Vaughan, and Wilson Pickett on his paper route. In the late ’60s, Vincent formed the band the Young Republic, and they performed at “the Cheetah in Manhattan and every university within a 50- to 100-mile radius.” Curatola followed in his father’s footsteps and became a masonry contractor, but as he told “New Jersey Monthly” in 2012, “When I was 39—I’m 59 now—my wife said to me, ‘Michael Moriarty teaches acting in Manhattan. Why don’t you go audit an acting class?'” Though initially he thought “the whole thing seemed ridiculous,” Vincent eventually took Maureen’s advice.
