Shaun Clayton is a resident of Chicago, Illinois and is a writer for the well known nerd humor and news site Topless Robot.
He is a graduate of the University of Arizona with a degree in Theater and Media Arts. While in college, he interned at Late Night with Conan O'Brien in New York City.
He is also a filmmaker, some of which appear monthly as "bumpers" during the First Friday Shorts contest for The Loft Cinema in Tucson, Arizona. Other films by him have been featured at the Austin Out of Bounds Festival, the IFP 24 Hour Film Challenge.
Some press stuff:
In Film We Trust - February 18, 2008
"Shaun Clayton returned to the Loft once again, this time presenting a mockumentary style piece with the simple, but accurate title of “Shaun Hits On Women.” The movie was short and sweet and had the audience giggling despite the low-res/choppy video quality. Shaun’s got a unique comedic voice that begs to be challenged."

"Clayton has been bringing tight, clever, funny films almost every month to First Friday Shorts, so we’ve all benefited from his wry wit. His talent and perseverance have at last been rewarded."
