Tim,

 You can import shapefiles into GRASS vector format using the v.in.ogr command.

(For completeness)

You can also access shapefiles (and other OGR formats) without actually
importing them using v.external. Importing with v.in.ogr is the preferred
method as it topologically checks and cleans your data.
