Jeff Cohen
Jeff Cohen played “The Chunk” in The Goonies, and after the film he got into shape and joined the high school football team. He went to Berkeley for college and then to UCLA to study Law, after which he founded Cohen Gardner LLP in 2002. He is also a writer. We can imagine that having The Chunk as your personal claim to fame has not been a walk in the park for Cohen.
Taran Noah Smith
Taran Noah Smith became famous for his role on Home Improvement as Marcus “Mark” Taylor. In 2001 he got married, and he and his-then wife – both devout vegans – established their own non-dairy cheese manufacturer and restaurant called Playfoods. Today he also is a technical manager teaching people how to pilot submarines. What an awesome career path! We would love to take a few lessons from him one day.
