Jared Nathan, a former cast member of the PBS children's television show "Zoom," died Thursday after a car crash. He was 21.
Mr. Nathan, who lived in Nashua, was a third-year acting student at the Juilliard School in New York, friends said Thursday. He was home on Christmas break.
Mr. Nathan was a passenger in a Toyota Camry that crashed into a tree and overturned early Thursday morning in Hollis, authorities said. He died later at St. Joseph Hospital in Nashua.
Police have arrested the driver, Gabriel King, 19, of Hudson, Mass., on a charge of aggravated drunken driving. He was released on $500 cash and $1,500 personal recognizance bail. Friends said King had been Mr. Nathan's roommate at the Walnut Hill School in Natick, Mass.

Mr. Nathan was 13 when he was selected for the 1999 revival of "Zoom," a public television show made by WGBH-TV in Boston that debuted in the 1970s. He was on the show for one season and would have been invited back had he not reached adolescence, said executive producer Kate Taylor.
