As the son of Hollywood stars Jack Cassidy and Shirley Jones and younger brother of Partridge Family star David Cassidy, Shaun's good looks and talent seemed to destine him for pop stardom early on. After a quick rise to fame through hit songs like "Da Doo Ron Ron" and starring in The Hardy Boys Mysteries TV show, Shaun decided to walk away from the entertainment biz in his early 20s just as many of his young fans were entering their teens. Over the next two decades, Cassidy focused on raising a family and slowly found his way back to creating through theater acting and writing scripts on spec. His big break came when the creepy drama American Gothic was picked up by CBS in 1995, sparking a second act as a successful TV producer and writer on shows like Invasion, Roar and New Amsterdam. Just last year, Shaun returned to performing with his autobiographical stage show The Magic of a Midnight Sky, reflecting candidly on his youthful past and the tragedy of losing both his father Jack and brother David over the years. Now in his 60s with his pop idol days far behind him, Shaun has ultimately crafted a unique career spanning songwriting, acting, screenwriting and TV production - while still making time for his greatest production of seven kids! This video traces his unusual journey and sustained creativity across very different showbiz incarnations. The Real Reason You Don’t See Shaun Cassidy Anymore
