Anthony was a New York City mobster and former consigliere in the Bonanno crime family.
His daughter Renee rose to fame when she became a participant on Mob Wives beginning in 2011. She, along with Drita D'Avanzo, were the only two cast members that appeared on all six seasons of the show.
Anthony was reportedly not thrilled with Renee's appearance on Mob Wives when the show premiered. His lawyer, Patrick Parrotta, denied those rumors in 2012.
