Born in Naples into a family of actors, Maggio had a turbulent adolescence that led his father to send him in an institute for problematic minors. He debuted on stage aged 18 years old.[1][2] He worked on stage in several sceneggiate and with the companies of Anna Fougez and Raffaele Viviani before creating his own revue company.[2]

Maggio was the brother of actors Enzo, Rosalia, Beniamino and Pupella Maggio.[2]

Selected filmography
gollark: Earth is very big and hard to destroy. Human civilisation probably less so, but the best estimate I'm aware of is that there's a 1/6 chance of extinction in the next century.
gollark: No.
gollark: As previously stated, no and I don't want to.
gollark: I agree.
gollark: I also disagree with the people saying they should teach stuff like doing taxes; there are entirely too many random "life skills" and they change lots. They should probably teach stuff like the ability to look this up on the internet on demand, and to usefully work from this information, rather than specific things.
