He studied at Cooper Union Institute and at the Art Students League with James Earle Fraser and George Bridgman. He opened his own studio in 1914 and was a partner in the firm Ricci & Zari from 1917 to 1941.


Ricci came to the attention of Karl Bitter when Bitter was head of sculpture decoration at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition which opened in 1915, where Ricci was commissioned to execute some of the sculptural decorations.[1]


Architectural sculptor Corrado Parducci apprenticed with Ricci & Zari.[2]
