William Eugene Burrows Jr.

He and his wife Silvana Gallardo have produced an instructional video to teach acting techniques entitled The Acting Class. The video is used in schools nationwide.

His father was a Native American actor and his mother was of Romany extraction. He took his mother's family name, Drago, because another actor in SAG had the name Burrows.

He is perhaps best known as Frank Nitti, the evil, whiny-voiced assassin with a white suit in The Untouchables (1987).

Father of actor Darren E. Burrows.

Frequently guest-starred on the television series Charmed (1998) as the Demon of Fear named Barbas; the indestructible nemesis of the Charmed Ones.

[on being cast in bad guy roles] I enjoy villains. I've figured out how to get paid for doing what they tried to throw me in jail for when I was a kid.
