Talbot was born and raised in the Bronx. His father was a plumber. His mother was a housewife. Talbot went to James Monroe High School Talbot had good marks all his years in school but he always had behavior problems. He used to get in trouble in class for constantly making humorous comments, joking about what was said in class by the teacher. At the age of sixteen he left high school to go to work and was the youngest person ever hired by Equitable Life Assurance to work in the Group Life Insurance Benefits department and at the age of 17 he joined the U.S. Navy. He went to boot camp at the Great Lakes naval Base in Illinois. He went to two class "A" schools in the navy as a Communications Technician. Talbot held special classified materials clearances which he always says saved his life. The clearances prevented him from being sent to Vietnam during the war. He always says, "If I went to Vietnam I would have probably been shot while telling a story." With the clearances he held and knowing what the did, he was not allowed on a battle field where he could possibly be captured. His first job out of the Navy was with the Tishman Realty Company, one of the largest construction contractors in the world, who at the time was building the World Trade Center. He became the assistant to Andy Sesenko the head Steel Engineer. After about a year Talbot decided to leave New York and relocate in California. He first started acting in California in 1972, not New York at Orange Coast Jr., College, in Costa Mesa CA. He later studied with Pat Randall at the Lee Strasberg Institute and again with Pat at the Inner Circle Actor's Theater. He later studied with Vera Vlassova of the Moscow Art Theater. As a young actress, now in her eighties, Vera had acted and toured with Stanislavsky's original touring group. Talbot has earned seven awards for his acting for his work in film and on stage for both drama and comedy, three best actor awards (one for film and two for stage) and four ensemble awards. He received six awards for his first feature film, "Still the Drums": Best Movie, Best Directorial Debut, Best Screenplay, Best Actor and Best New Song, "Nobody's Fault But Mine the P.T.S.D. Blues" and the Platinum Reel for Standout filmmaking at the Nevada film Festival.
