Giovanni Battista Repucci was born in Chiusano di San Domenico, Italy in 1606. On 19 February 1657, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope Paul V as Bishop of Vico Equense. On 24 February 1657, he was consecrated bishop by Marcantonio Franciotti, Cardinal-Priest of Santa Maria della Pace. He served as Bishop of Vico Equense until his death in February 1688.
