His first acting credits, according to IMDb, were as a pedestrian in the 1978 film Rush It and as Lloyd Lord in several episodes of Ryan's Hope the same year.

Additionally, he was seen in the 1985 Broadway play Requiem for a Heavyweight, along with several Off-Broadway productions.
Capodice was "a devoted husband, father and grandfather," as described in his obituary. He is survived by his wife, Jane, daughters Tessa and Cassandra, and four grandchildren: David, Jake, Frankie and Giuliana.
