Burton was born Corey Gregg Weinberg in the Granada Hills, Los Angeles on August 3, 1955.
Burton started his career at age 17 under the stage name Corey Weinman, with an imitation performance of Hans Conried for Disney. He studied radio acting with Daws Butler for four years and went on to work with nearly all of the original Hollywood radio actors in classic-style radio dramas. He was unsure at first about pursuing voice-work, due to his shy demeanor and autism spectrum disorder, but credits the diverse world and character design of Disney's The Haunted Mansion attraction as his inspiration to move forward.
