Date of birth: 1960
His mother Laura Girr Taggart was born in 1960. She served as a public school teacher for years. Her face has become popular in 2017 after she had attended a Grammy Awards ceremony with her famous son, who was nominated in three categories that year. Before the ceremony, the woman gave an interview, where she told that still didn’t get used to her son’s fame and feels very awkward when her students ask about him. At the same time, she hoped that her son would become a great role model for her pupils.
Laura remains an important person in her son’s life. The only thing she regrets about her son’s super successful career is the lack of communication. Now, when they live in different states (she remains in Maine, while her son has moved to California), they exist in various time zones and very rarely can see each other and spend some time together.
