TARAN NOAH SMITH – SUBMARINE INSTRUCTOR AND RESTAURATEUR A
Taran Noah Smith is a retired child actor who rose to popularity as Marcus “Mark” Taylor in Home Improvement, one of the longest-running sitcoms of the 1990s. His success in the sitcom opened the door to Hollywood, and he could have gone on to play bigger and greater parts. But, instead, it perplexed me because he appeared to have different goals for his life.
Taran realized he didn’t want to remain in the acting scene once the program finished and chose to leave the profession. Instead, he and his wife started a business and made a wise investment in producing cheese and opening their restaurant. Taran volunteered with disaster assistance in Communitere, Philippines, in his spare time. He also instructs folks on how to operate a submarine!
