Keiran Arthur is an Australian actor, puppeteer and film & television crew member. Keiran was born in Orange, NSW. He attended Bathurst High School. From a young age he developed an interest in Muppet style puppetry. Keiran graduated from Charles Sturt University in Bathurst, NSW with Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood) in 2000. As a teacher, he often used his puppetry as a teaching tool and a behavior management technique.
In 2011, Keiran started producing his Mr Arthur's Puppets Youtube channel as a means of sharing his puppetry talent with past and present students, but also a worldwide audience.
In 2011, Keiran successfully auditioned for Season 6 of Australia's Got Talent (2007) as Mr Arthur's Puppets, which was televised on 30 April 2012.

Keiran went from being a teacher who used puppets to being a puppeteer who was also a teacher. This experience sparked his interest in performing for film and television, not only as a puppeteer but also as an actor and extra in productions.
