Personal life

Shaw was born in Los Angeles, California to television writer Rick Shaw and voice actor, Ellie Baer. Since his father worked On the Television show The Nanny, Shaw was able to get a small role in one episode as a trick-or-treater. This led him into the film and television world, landing a few roles in television and doing multiple uncredited voiceover work in the video game industry, namely the popular Xbox 360 game, Mass Effect. In 2008 Shaw placed in the top 10 for a national YouTube contest for tickets to the premiere of Get Smart (film). He came in only as a runner up, though, somewhat ironically was seen at the premiere anyway.
