Shaun Michael Taylor-Corbett (October 6, 1978)[1] is an American actor, and is the son of choreographer Lynne Taylor-Corbett and Music Executive Michael Corbett. Shaun is of Native American descent and has three sisters.[2]

He was also the vice president of the university's World Peace Club and was an honors student. He had vocal training from Shirley Callaway. After college, he joined The New York Public Theater, where he performed Shakespeare. He also joined the Harrington Theater Arts Company and appeared on All My Children many times. He also appeared as Romeo in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet at the McCarter Theater.

In 2003, he joined the American counterpart to the famous Australian kids' show Hi-5. As a member, he was the American counterpart of Nathan Foley. In Hi-5, his segment is Shapes and Space, where he would play with play objects, as if they were real life objects, like a giant pyramid and a tunnel underground. He would also explain the functions of shapes as well as performing songs; solo and as part of the Hi-5band.[3]
