Michael Shea es un ex actor infantil estadounidense. Comenzando una prolífica carrera a la edad de diez años, Shea es quizás mejor conocido por interpretar el papel principal en la serie de televisión infantil de NBC, The New Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, así como por sus roles en largometrajes: como Nick en la película familiar de Ivan Tors, Namu, the Killer Whale; como Jimmy en el western de MGM, Welcome to Hard Times; y como "Cav" en el drama de Walt Disney, Ride a Northbound Horse. Aunque nació y se crió en la ciudad de Nueva York, Shea fue principalmente elegido como el "niño de campo" saludable de un pueblo pequeño a lo largo de la mayor parte de su carrera como estrella infantil.
