Anthony Cardoza

Anthony "Tony" Cardoza (born 1930 in Hartford, Connecticut, U.S.) is an American actor and film producer. He has worked on over a dozen films, but is perhaps best known for his three collaborations with Coleman Francis in the 1960s: The Beast of Yucca Flats, The Skydivers, and Night Train To Mundo Fine. Before becoming involved in the film industry, Cardoza was a welder -- a trade he continued making a living from for a number of years into his show business career. However, in 1963 a doctor advised him to stop welding because of chalazion forming under his eyelids.
