== Early life ==
Corbett was born in Portland, Oregon, in 1888, the son of Henry J. Corbett and Helen Ladd Corbett. The Corbett family was one of the wealthiest and most influential families in Oregon at that time. One of Corbett's grandfathers was Henry W. Corbett, a successful businessman and United States senator from Oregon. His other grandfather, William S. Ladd, was the mayor of Portland and founder the ''Ladd and Tilton Bank'', the first bank established in the state of Oregon.〔( "Corbett Rites Set Thursday" ), ''The Oregonian'', Portland, Oregon, 24 April 1957, p. 11.〕〔("Corbett, H. L. and Gretchen Hoyt, House" ), National Register of Historic Places Registration Form, National Park Service, United States Department of the Interior, Portland, Oregon, 15 July 1990.〕
Corbett grew up in Portland, where he attended the Portland Academy. His father died in 1895, when he was 7 years old.〔"Henry J. Corbett Dead", ''Sunday Oregonian'', Portland, Oregon, 3 March 1895, p. 8.〕 Since his father was already dead when his grandfather, Henry W. Corbett, died in 1903, Corbett and his two older brothers (Henry L. Corbett and Elliott R. Corbett) inherited the bulk of the Corbett family fortune. His grandfather's estate was valued at approximately $5,000,000, making all three young men very wealthy.〔〔("Gives to Charity…Grandsons are Made the Residuary Legatees" ), ''Sunday Oregonian'', Portland, Oregon, 5 April 1903, p. 1.〕
