Jonathan Taylor Thomas – Harvard Graduate

John Taylor Thomas is the voice of the famous lion, Simba, in the Disney movie classic Lion King. It’s no secret that many adults today still rave about the Lion King movies and consider it a household name in childhood movies. Jonathan also played the role of Randy Taylor in the ABC 90’s sitcom Home Improvement. It would seem as if Jonathan had a bright future ahead of him because of the success he got from these two projects.

He worked alongside the talented Tim Allen and learned many skills that he would eventually need to perform at his best. After working for seven successful years on the show, he decided to leave in 1998. Not only did he leave this production but also retired from his acting career. After he left, he focused on his studies and was able to earn a degree at Harvard, thanks to his hard work and dedication.
