The eldest of four children, he was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1977 and currently lives in Maryland.

Malfi received a degree in English from Towson University in 1999. In 2009, his novel Shamrock Alley, based on the true exploits of his own father, a retired Secret Service agent who went undercover and infiltrated the violent Irish gang in Manhattan known as The Westies, was released and optioned for television.

Earlier small press novels and short stories had Malfi using his full name, Ronald Damien Malfi, but he later dropped his middle name for his mass market releases. He is considered one of the new wave of literary, or "art house," horror novelists.
