Episode 89
Wednesday, 14 May, 2025

Sharon Baird is a dancer, singer, and actress. You may know her best as one of Walt Disney’s original Mouseketeers on the classic television show, The Mickey Mouse Club. As one of only nine Mouseketeers to appear on all three seasons of the show, Sharon proved herself to be the best dancer in the bunch. Beginning her dance training at three years old, Sharon has danced with the likes of Mitzi Gaynor, Dean Martin, and Donald O’Connor. Sharon has also used dance to bring to life countless characters, including the puppets of Sid and Marty Krofft on such television shows as H.R. Pufnstuf, and the title character of the 1986 cult classic, Ratboy. Listen as Sharon and Shannon discuss Sharon’s remarkable Hollywood career and passion for dance.
