Domenico Cennini was born in Chiusi, Italy in 1606 and ordained a priest in November 1644.[2] On 6 March 1645, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope Innocent X as Bishop of Gravina di Puglia.[2] On 19 March 1645, he was consecrated bishop by Giulio Cesare Sacchetti, Cardinal-Priest of Santa Susanna, with Onorato Onorati, Bishop of Urbania e Sant'Angelo in Vado, and Papirio Silvestri, Bishop of Macerata e Tolentino, serving as co-consecrators.[2] He served as Bishop of Gravina di Puglia until his death in August 1684.[2]
