Sebastian MacLean was born on February 8, 1976 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada as Sebastian Michael John MacLean. He grew up and first began acting on Canada's east coast in the province of New Brunswick. Before returning to perform in Toronto, Sebastian was mentored by the late Academy Award winning producer, William Vince, on two films he produced near the east coast city of Fredericton. Taking the advice of his mentor, Sebastian began looking at developing some of his own material by delving more deeply into acting, writing and producing. Sebastian is best known for his appearances on many internationally popular fictional TV series and for his work on both sides of the camera in the documentary film Facing Goliath (2006). He has been married to Margot Jean since December 27, 1997. They have three children.
