Biography

The actress, singer and stage director Rae Allen was born Raffaella Julia Theresa Abruzzo in Brooklyn, New York, to Joseph and Julia Abruzzo (née Riccio). She attended New York University and later studied drama at the Herbert Berghof Studio in Greenwich Village and at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts from which she graduated in 1947. Rae made her theatrical debut on Broadway the following year as a singer and understudy in Where's Charley?, then co-starred alongside Ethel Merman in Call Me Madam and with Gwen Verdon in the original Broadway production of Damn Yankees (a Tony Award-nominated role she later reprised for the film adaptation). In 1971, she won the Tony as Best Featured Actress for her role as Fleur Stein in the darkly comedic play And Miss Reardon Drinks a Little.

On screen from 1958, Rae made sporadic guest appearances in serial television, including in The Untouchables (1959), Car 54, Where Are You? (1961), Soap (1977), Lou Grant (1977) and Hill Street Blues (1981). Perhaps her most memorable recurring role was that of Quintina Blundetto, mother of one Tony (Steve Buscemi) and aunt to another (James Gandolfini) in The Sopranos (1999). Her infrequent forays to the big screen included Stargate (1994) (as research scientist Barbara Shore) and A League of Their Own (1992) (as the mother of aspiring baseball players, portrayed by Geena Davis and Lori Petty). Dividing her time equally between stage and screen, the energetic performer was also busy as a theatrical director from 1972 to 1979, notably at Stage West in Springfield, Massachusetts. Rae Allen was twice married and divorced. She passed away at the venerable age of 95 on April 6 2022.
