Jared Nathan

Actor

August 10, 1985—December 28, 2006

Jared Nathan was born on August 10, 1985 and grew up in Nashua, New Hampshire. Outgoing and personable from an early age, as a child he joined local acting groups and took part in many stage productions. When he was 12, he scored a part in a Papa Gino’s commercial. Nathan’s one and only television credit was as a cast member on the first season (1999) of the revamped kids’ show Zoom. Apparently, everyone on the staff liked him and was pleased with his performance. However, the show’s producers were hoping he would remain childlike forever, à la Peter Pan, and when that didn’t happen they fired him after one season (along with most of the rest of the cast). There are snippets of his appearances on the ‘net—very entertaining.

Back in the real world, Jared finished high school and went on to attend the prestigious Julliard School in New York City.

On December 28, 2006, while home on winter break, Nathan was a passenger in a car that crashed into a tree in Hollis, New Hampshire. Sadly, that was the end for him.

After his death, there were many tributes to and glowing comments made about him. I know that happens all the time whenever anyone dies, no matter how awful they were, but in Nathan’s case it all appears to be deserved.

The car’s driver survived the crash and was arrested and charged with aggravated drunken driving. He plead guilty to negligent homicide and was sentenced to 12 months in jail, half of which was suspended by the judge.
