He is known for his role on the sitcom ''Everybody Loves Raymond'', for which he received an Emmy Award, and as the voice of "Manny" in the ''Ice Age'' film series. He created and starred in the TNT comedy-drama ''Men of a Certain Age'' (2009–11). From 2012 to 2015, Romano had a recurring role in ''Parenthood''. Currently, Ray is the leader of an up and coming band known as Shitz N' Gigglez. ==Personal life and family== Romano was born in Queens, New York, the son of Lucie (Fortini), a piano teacher, and Albert Romano (November 7, 1925 – March 11, 2010), a real estate agent and engineer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ray Romano Biography (1957-) )〕 He is of seven-eighths Italian, and one-eighth French descent, and grew up in the Forest Hills neighborhood of Queens.〔Strickland, Carol. ("Can Sitcom Make It With L.I. Setting?" ), ''The New York Times'', December 1, 1996. Accessed November 12, 2007. "For ''Everybody Loves Raymond,'' the route to Hollywood Hills began in Forest Hills, where Ray Romano, standup comedian and the star of the show, grew up."〕〔http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005380/bio〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ray Romano )〕 He has an older brother Richard (born in 1956), a sergeant with the NYPD, and a younger brother Robert, a second grade teacher in New York City.〔(Ray Romano and his brothers see the humor in sibling rivalry - and they put it on paper ). Online Athens. Retrieved September 6, 2013.〕 Romano married his wife, Anna Scarpulla, on October 11, 1987. They met while working at a bank together. They have four children: one daughter, Alexandra (born in 1990), and three sons: twins Matthew and Gregory (born in 1993), and Joseph Raymond (born in 1998). Romano's character's daughter on ''Everybody Loves Raymond'' was named after his real-life daughter. Also, in the series pilot, Ray and Debra's twin boys were named Gregory and Matthew, after Romano's real-life twin sons, but Romano felt it was inconvenient to have all his TV children have the same names as his real children, and changed the twins' names to Geoffrey and Michael on screen. He also said his brother was not pleased with Ray Barone's TV brother. Romano's family has made various appearances in the show. Romano's real-life daughter Alexandra "Ally" Romano made several appearances on ''Everybody Loves Raymond'' as Molly, the best friend of his on-screen daughter, Ally, and the daughter of Ray Barone's nemesis, Peggy the Cookie Lady. Romano's father, Albert Romano, has made various appearances as "Albert", one of Frank Barone's lodge buddies in various episodes such as "Debra at the Lodge", and "Boys' Therapy". Romano's brother, Richard Romano, has appeared in the episodes "Golf For It", "Just a Formality" and "The Toaster". Romano's wife Anna appeared as one of the moms in the background at Geoffrey's and Michael's school in season 6's episode titled "The Angry Family." In February 2012, Romano revealed that his wife, Anna, had successfully battled stage one breast cancer in 2010. Romano told ''People'' magazine that "the reason we're going public is to share our experience, yeah, but to have an effect. Our goal is to help people." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ray Romano」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
