Candice azzara husband

 "Growing up in Brooklyn prepared me for show business." Ever since Candice (aka Candy) was a child she has been performing and involved with her Art projects. "At home Dad created his own one man band playing harmonica, guitar, and cymbals. My parents would sing Country Western songs, yodelling, while my sisters, brother and I would sing along and dance. My neighborhood was filled with comics, high drama and boys singing on the corners."

Fellini's movie La Strada and a great Italian Theater Legend Eleanora Duse inspired Candice to pursue an acting career. So, off she went to New York City to learn her craft, studying the Classics: Voice, speech, poetry, ballet, opera and acting classes (with Lee Strasberg and Gene Frankel). This led to Off-Broadway plays, Regional Theater, A Comedy Improvisation Group, Summer Stock, Pre-Broadway plays and then Broadway, including Lovers and Other Strangers written by Renee Taylor and Joe Bologna. They also hired her as a TV Series Regular in their sitcom Calucci
