Campanella was born in New York City, the son of Sicilian immigrants Philip and Mary O. Campanella. He was the older brother of actor Joseph Campanella, and Philip Campanella [who became a union plumber] and spoke mostly Italian growing up; this proved useful during World War II, when he worked as a civilian translator for the U.S. government. Campanella graduated from Manhattan College in 1940, where he studied drama.

(1968), The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight (1971), The Stone Killer (1973), Capone (1975, as Big Jim Colosimo), Chesty Anderson, USN (1976), Heaven Can Wait (1978), The North Avenue Irregulars (1979), High Noon, Part II: The Return of Will Kane (1980), Death Wish II (1982), Young Doctors in Love (1982), The Flamingo Kid (1984), Nothing in Common (1986), Overboard (1987), Beaches (1988), Blood Red (1989), Pretty Woman (1990) and Dick Tracy (1990).
