Early life

West was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, the son of Leah Catherine (née Launey), a lawyer) and Don Snaith, a drugstore owner. Both his parents were musicians and had their own punk bands. His mother is of Cajun French descent, and his father was born in Jamaica, of British and Portuguese-Jewish origins. With a sister Simone and a half-sister Marli Ann, he is the eldest of three children. In 1982, his parents divorced when he was four years old. He grew up listening to the Clash, the Jam, Blondie, Elvis Costello, and the Kinks, influenced by his parents. "I always thought I'd be doing music rather than acting," he said.

West and his sister Simone moved to Compton, California, with their mother, who was looking for a better job at ten years old. They then moved to Norwalk, California. West went by his feminine first name but changed his name to Shane West in High school when he first began acting, embarrassing him. He suffered for two years and lived at his boss's house before making his acting debut in 1995, where he appeared in the CBS drama Picket Fences, where he played Dave Lattimore.

Personal life

West is a sports enthusiast and ardent supporter of the New Orleans Saints and the LSU Tigers football teams. In 2019, he contributed to some of the team's pre-season videos. During the filming of the series Nikita, he lived in Toronto, Canada.
