Sure. There is a OMG-adopted language mapping, at

http://cgi.omg.org/cgi-bin/doc?ptc/00-04-08.pdf

There is a number of implementations of that mapping as well. In order
of appearance:

ILU:          ftp://ftp.parc.xerox.com/pub/ilu/ilu.html
Fnorb:        http://www.fnorb.com
omniORBpy:    http://www.uk.research.att.com/omniORB/omniORBpy/
orbit-python: http://sourceforge.net/project/?group_id=3561
[They look like they are ordered by increasing name length :-]

These implementations differ in ease-of-installation, degree of
conformance to the mapping spec (or to CORBA Core), additional
features offered, performance, portability, and so on.

Discussion of CORBA and Python typically takes place on the DO SIG,

http://www.python.org/sigs/do-sig/
