Ray Liotta is an American actor with a talent for portraying psychopaths and mobster types in film and television. He studied acting at the University of Miami. He made his film debut in "The Lonely Lady" (1983) in which he sexually assaults a woman with a garden hose. Afterwards, his breakthrough role in "Something Wild" (1986) earned him rave reviews. Avoiding being typecast as a psycho, Liotta turned down a number of offers for smaller roles with reasonable success. His next big hit was Martin Scorsese's classic "Goodfellas" (1990), in which he played the central character, Henry Hill, based on the real-life mobster-turned-FBI informant. The film was a smash hit in the box office and an instant classic, allowing him to take on bigger roles in the coming years in films like "Article 99" (1992), "Unlawful Entry" (1992) and "Unforgettable" (1996). Liotta continues to be a well-respected and sought-after actor. |
