Biography
Carbone was born as Antonio Giuseppe Carmelo Carbone in Calabria, Italy on July 15, 1925. His family moved to Syracuse, New York when he was a young boy,[2] and his name was changed to Antony Deago Carbone. The family later relocated to Los Angeles, California.
After graduating from Los Angeles State College, he moved to New York City to study drama[2] with Harold Clurman and Eva Le Gallienne. He started his professional acting career in small parts in various Broadway productions before moving into film and television.
He was probably best known for his supporting roles in several low-budget horror films by Roger Corman in the late 1950s and early 1960s.[1] In 1968, Carbone appeared (credited as Anthony Carbone) as the first Mexican on The Big Valley, in the episode titled "Miranda."
From the mid-1980s, he worked as a stage director in Los Angeles. Carbone died in Long Beach, California in October 2020, at the age of 95.[3][4][5]
