Anthony Jude Pero (born October 14, 1959 in Staten Island, New York) is the drummer of the American heavy metal band Twisted Sister.
He went to St. Peter's Boys High School in Staten Island, but left because the faculty made him cut his hair. He then went to New Dorp High School.
Pero joined the band in 1982, after he left Cities, a local New York City band. Upon his departure from Twisted Sister in 1986, he re-joined Cities. He participated in the band's 1997 reunion and continues to perform with Twisted Sister.
In 2007 Pero formed Circle Of Thorns with former Cities guitarist Steve Mironovich AKA Steve Irons.
