Raised in rural Newfoundland, Canada, Shaun Majumder has been a performer his entire life. After leaving his hometown of Burlington (Population: 350) and moving to Mississauga, Ontario, at the age of thirteen, Shaun acted in his first stage play in the 8th Grade (Grade 8 in Canada). Immediately, he was hooked. He continued theatre throughout high school, winning several awards at festivals for his many performances. But according to the adults around him, there was no future in this acting thing. So, Shaun followed his teachers' guidance and did what most did: went to university, hoping a career would find him.

After one year of partying and taking general arts classes, Shaun quickly realized his true passion was acting, so he abandoned his safety net and went for it.

He found early success as a stand-up comedian and host, landing his first gigs with YTV (Canada’s Nickelodeon) as a host/PJ for five years, as well as with CBC’s Just for Laughs comedy series. He continued to book small roles in Film and TV, and in 2003 he joined the cast of CBC’s This Hour Has 22 Minutes, where he spent seventeen seasons.

For the past twenty-plus years, Shaun has found success on both sides of the border. A few noteworthy performances include his work as Detective Vik Mahajan in ABC’s critically acclaimed crime drama, Detroit 1-8-7. His role as Andrew Palmer on NBC’s The Firm starring alongside Josh Lucas and Juliette Lewis. As Hassan Numair on FOX’s 24. His comedy roles include starring in the Sketch Comedy Series Cedric the Entertainer Presents, The Farrelly Brothers’ Unhitched, ABC’s Married Not Dead, NBC’s Nevermind Nirvana, and CBC’s Hatching Matching and Dispatching.
