One month after graduating from Carnegie Mellon, he landed the role of Eddie the Bellhop in a revival of "Dinner at Eight" at the Lincoln Center.
Television Career
After moving to Los Angeles and spending some time working in construction, Coiro landed his first major screen-acting role: Billy Walsh on the HBO series "Entourage." Originally a guest role, the character evolved into a significant recurring one, launching Coiro to fame. "Entourage" was a hit, running for eight seasons from 2004 to 2011. During that time, Coiro made appearances in episodes of "CSI: NY," "CSI: Miami," "Six Feet Under," "Ugly Betty," "Raines," and "Criminal Minds," among other shows. He also played FBI Agent Sean Hillinger in the seventh season of the action drama series "24." Coiro had his next substantial role as Dr. Zeke Barnes on the short-lived CBS fantasy medical drama "A Gifted Man," starring Patrick Wilson. After that, he had guest roles on "Person of Interest," "Longmire," and "Dexter," and was part of the main cast of the short-lived CBS series "Hostages," based on the Israeli series of the same name.
In 2014, Coiro played the antagonist Tommy in the final season of the Norwegian crime dramedy series "Lillyhammer." The following year, he appeared on the USA Network's "Graceland" and in the History Channel miniseries "Texas Rising."
