Deborah Kobylt LIVE: Lorenzo Antonucci

Deborah Kobylt Live, Little Italy of LA

Please welcome to our #LittleItalyOfLAPodcast actor, writer, producer Lorenzo Antonucci, heartthrob from “Days Of Our Lives,” and “Game of Thrones” in their eighth season.

Lorenzo always wanted to work in the acting business, but pursuing his dream wasn’t so easy because it just wasn’t what kids did in his neighborhood. Born in Brooklyn and raised on the streets in Queens, the idea of becoming an actor seemed so far away, until one day he decided to pack up and head to Los Angeles to make things happen.

Lorenzo joins us on our show to talk about taking chances in life, making a plan of action, and of course, he discusses how his Italian roots shaped him.

Our #LittleItalyOfLAPodcast is available on all audio and video platforms. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, please invite your friends to join, too🇮🇹
