Ted Shackleford

Theodore "Ted" Shackleford (who's most often called simply The Man with the Yellow Hat) is a main character in the Curious George Trilogy Set and PBS Kids TV series (2006-2015). In 2006, it was revealed that the Man's full name is Ted Shackleford.

He's the dueteragonist of Curious George books/series, the main protagonist of the first film, the tritagonist of the second film and a minor character of the third and fourth films, Curious George 3: Back to the Jungle and Curious George 4: Royal Monkey (upcoming).

He is George's owner, but sees himself as more of a "Monkey Father." It's unknown where he lives, but certain clues from three movies and TV series indicate that he lives in either Manhattan, New York City or Chicago, Illinois.

His current hobbies include bowling, studying nature, hiking, jogging, camping, bike riding, playing the tuba, sand castle building, going to the beach, gardening, reading, marathon running, board games, frog impressions, golf, bird watching, and "worm racing."
