Biography

Thomas D'Andrea's family legacy is marked by the presence of three sons, Thomas, Jim D'Andrea, and Mick D'Andrea, each contributing to the family's rich history.

Thomas's children, Rick D'Andrea, Elizabeth D'Andrea-Schusterman, and Allison D'Andrea, carry on the family name, while Jim's children, April, Justin, and Allison D'Andrea, also play a significant role in preserving the family's heritage.

Tragically, Mick D'Andrea passed away in 1996 due to cancer, leaving behind a lasting impact on the family.

Thomas's grandchildren, Sarah Hipp and Anabella D'Andrea, and his great-great-grandchildren, Aria Diane Rayn Hipp, are a testament to the family's enduring legacy.

Thomas's most notable achievements include his work at Warner Brothers Studio from 1943 to 1948, where he appeared in various movie roles. He also enjoyed a seven-year stint as the neighbor and sidekick, "Jim Gillis", in the popular NBC-TV sitcom, The Life of Riley, starring William Bendix, from 1953 to 1959.
