Levy is a graduate of Hofstra University, Village of Hempstead, New York, and Hofstra University's Law School. Before serving as a representative, Levy was a lawyer, utility company executive, and member of the Hempstead Town Council from 1989 to 1993. He has also served in the News Departments of radio stations WGBB (Freeport, New York), WHN (New York), WINS (New York) and WKJY (Hempstead, New York).

A Republican, Levy succeeded representative Norman F. Lent, who was also a Republican and did not stand for re-election in 1992. He sought his party's renomination in 1994, but it instead went to a more conservative challenger, Dan Frisa,^[1] who went on to win election but was defeated after one term by Democrat Carolyn McCarthy.

He served as counsel to the town supervisor of Hempstead from 1995 to 2017.^[2]
