A lifelong performer born and raised in New York, Ronnie Magri has built his career at the intersection of music and film. Known first as a professional drummer and bandleader, he brought decades of live performance experience to the screen when he began pursuing acting in 2014. The transition was a natural one—storytelling, rhythm, and presence having always been central to his work onstage.

Since then, Magri has appeared in numerous film and television productions, including The Irishman, Ray Donovan, Gotham, The Deuce, Murphy Brown, The Get Down, The Kitchen, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Bel Canto, Orange Is the New Black, Vinyl, Mozart in the Jungle, Blue Bloods, and Elementary. Drawing from his musical background, he brings grounded authenticity and instinctive timing to his on-screen performances.

Magri trained at HB Studio in New York under Michael Beckett, further refining his craft and deepening his commitment to character-driven work, and is a proud member of SAG-AFTRA
