Campanella was born in New York City , the son of Philip and Mary O. Campanella, both born in
Sicily .[1] The family lived in the Washington Heights section of upper Manhattan. He was the older brother of actor Joseph Campanella , and Philip Campanella (who became a union plumber) and spoke mostly Italian growing up; this proved useful during World War II , when he worked as a civilian translator for the U.S. government. Campanella graduated from Manhattan College in 1940,[2] where he studied drama.[3]
Campanella's first film role was as Mook, the Moon-Man in the 1949 science-fiction series Captain Video and His Video Rangers [4] and went on to appear in more than 100 film and television episodes, usually playing the "tough guy".

He helped Robert De Niro learn Sicilian for his role as young Vito Corleone in Francis Ford Coppola 's The Godfather: Part II (1974).
Campanella's early television roles included three appearances as different police lieutenants on the syndicated crime drama , Decoy , starring Beverly Garland as the first female police lead in a television series. In one of the Decoy episodes, he appeared with his brother Joseph. Over his career, he appeared, often in police roles, in such well-known series as Ironside ; Mannix ; The Rockford Files ; Quincy, M.E. ; Chico and the Man ; All in the Family ; Mission: Impossible ; Maude ; Rhoda ; and The Love Boat . In 1969, Campanella appeared as Sheriff Quartermine on the TV Series The Virginian in the episode titled "Journey to Scathelock".
