Brady Smith grew up in Houston, Texas and attended college at Stephen

F. Austin State University where he graduated with a Bachelor of Fine

Arts degree. It was in college, on a fluke, that he was first introduced

to acting. After graduation, Brady moved abroad to Europe where he

traveled for six months and began documenting his adventures in an

illustrated journal. This exercise eventually led to dozens more trips

and the birth of his daily illustrated journals, which he continues to

this day.

Upon moving back to Houston, he started his own illustration and

design company, Brady Smith Creative. He also began exhibiting his

paintings around local restaurants and galleries in the greater Houston

area. He kept this up for 7 years, having art shows and selling

illustrations, but in the back of his mind the urge to take a real swing

as an actor always lingered.

In the summer of 2000, with a car stuffed to the roof full of blank

canvases, a few suitcases and an old surfboard, he moved to Los Angeles,

CA. After three years of sleeping on couches and working odd jobs,

(cleaning wetsuits at a dive shop, delivering food, and substitute

teaching), Brady finally found an agent and began auditioning. Not too

long after he began working. And not too, too long after that, he met

his future wife, actress Tiffani Thiessen.

Brady has also sold feature scripts, a television pilot and a

children’s book which he has co-authored with his wife. For a more

extensive list of his work here’s a link to his IMDB page…

He has also continued exhibiting his paintings in solo shows throughout Los Angeles and Tribeca, NYC. Brady currently resides in LA, with his wife, Tiffani Thiessen, their two children, three pooches, eight chickens and one fish.
