Steve Schirripa on Stand Up Comedy and 'Last Comic Standing'

Steve Schirripa is a judge on Last Comic Standing.
Schirripa is a native of Bensonhurst, Brooklyn and is best known for his character Bobby "Bacala" Baccalieri in the hit TV show The Sopranos. But before going into acting, Schirripa was in the comedy business. "For over 20 years I've been in that world," he said, "Stand up comedy is a very under rated art form."
Along with Last Comic Standing, Schirripa also plays Leo on ABC Family's The Secret Life of An American Teenager, who is father to a pregnant 15-year-old teenager.
