Talon Smith

Talon was born in California on George Air Force Base in Victorville, CA. His parents moved to Kentucky at a young age where he was raised. In high school Talon played football and ran track. His goal was always to become an orthopedic surgeon but that all changed after 9/11. Talon was set on joining the military and even attempted enlisting at 17 to join his friends in Iraq. However, with guidance from his parents Talon decided to look at military academies and pursue becoming an officer. He attended the VMI (Virginia Military Institute) Football camp with hopes of getting a scholarship. During the summer of 2005 Talon participated in the Model and Talent Expo by Mike Beaty in Orlando, Florida with the encouragement of his manager Jake Lang of Wings Model Management in Cincinnati, Ohio. There, Talon won Top Teen Male Model among other awards and was approached by an acting manager in Los Angeles. With the encouragement of his parents Talon moved to Los Angeles and began his acting career. After filming Ashley Tisdale "Kiss the Girl" music video, Talon guest starred in Ghost Whisperer playing "Young Jim" and Nickelodeon's Unfabulous as Gianni. In August 2007 Talon decided to follow his conviction and enlist in the United States Navy. He has since deployed twice including a combat tour to Afghanistan with an elite Marine Recon Unit. Talon is married to model Jaime Spahr (now Jaime Smith) and they have a daughter due in late June/early July.
