Ambrogio Torriano was born in the village of Indovero in the comune of Casargo, Italy.[2] In the papal consistory of 15 December 1666 he was appointed by Pope Alexander VII as Bishop of Como.[1][2] On 21 December 1666 he was consecrated bishop by Benedetto Odescalchi, Cardinal-Priest of Sant'Onofrio, with Giacomo de Angelis, Archbishop of Urbino, and Marco Galli, Bishop of Rimini, serving as co-consecrators.[2] He served as Bishop of Como until his death on 9 October 1679.[1][2]
