Paul Sorvino, the Tony-nominated actor who played mobster Paulie Cicero in Goodfellas, has died at age 83. Sorvino, the father of actor Mira Sorvino, died of natural causes on Monday, his wife Dee Dee announced.

Sorvino was born in the Bensonhurst neighborhood of Brooklyn in 1939, the son of an Italian immigrant father who worked in a robe factory and a homemaker mother, also a piano teacher. He dreamed of becoming an opera singer, performing first in hotels in the Catskills, but problems with asthma made him focus on acting.
