He was born in Chicago and has five brothers & five sisters. From age 7 to 13, he lived in what Oprah stated was the poorest town in the US: Pembroke, Illinois. Ricco received a MFA from UCLA. As an actor, his first year out of college he booked reoccurring roles on Hill St. Blues & The Young & the Restless. Soon afterwards, feeling type-cast, he decided to study Shakespeare for a year in England at the London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art (LAMDA). That year turned into 13 years of living abroad. He worked as an English actor in London, while moon lighting as a model in France & Italy for 4 yrs. He also turned down a European Pro basket ball contract in Cyprus. He has lived and worked all over the UK, Europe, Eastern Europe, Africa, & Asia. His impressive resume includes credits such as Aliens, Mission Impossible, Night Walk, The Practice, Highlander, Babylon 5, Beverly Hills 90210, Hayabusa, JAG, E.R., A Husband For Christmas, (where he played the title role), P-Valley and many more.
