Toronto, ON
Gregory Smith is a Canadian-American actor and producer best known for his portrayal of Ephram Brown on The WB’s Everwood. Born in Toronto, Ontario, he began acting at a very young age, landing a Tide detergent commercial when he was just 14 months old and steadily building a diverse resume across film and television.
Throughout his career, Smith appeared in notable projects such as Harriet the Spy alongside Michelle Trachtenberg and The Patriot with Mel Gibson and Heath Ledger. These early opportunities helped him refine his craft while balancing school and family life. He grew up with two younger brothers and a younger sister, a dynamic that shaped his collaborative approach on set and his understanding of family-centered storytelling.
Public bios highlight his dual citizenship in Canada and the United States, a detail that gave him flexibility to work across borders and connect with audiences on both sides of the border. He also co-owns Braveart, a production company focused on developing and producing projects for North American audiences, a venture that showcases his commitment to storytelling beyond his on-screen roles.
One of his early, memorable screen appearances is in Small Soldiers, where he plays Alan Abernathy opposite Kirsten Dunst. The film introduced him to a broad, international audience and foreshadowed a career that would span big-screen adventures and intimate character work.
Smith’s breakout on television came with Everwood, a family drama that ran for four seasons. His portrayal of Ephram offered a candid look at adolescence, a evolving relationship with his father, and a growing bond with friends and peers. The show earned a devoted following for its emotional honesty, and Smith became a familiar face for fans who followed him from a child actor to a steady screen presence.
After Everwood, Gregory continued to pursue acting while expanding into production opportunities. Through Braveart, he has supported projects in Canada and the United States, helping shepherd stories from development to the screen. In addition to acting roles in independent features and television projects, his work behind the camera reflects a commitment to nurturing new talent and telling stories that resonate with contemporary audiences.
Today, Smith remains active in both sides of the industry, balancing acting commitments with production leadership and collaborating with writers, directors, and fellow artists who share a passion for engaging, accessible storytelling. — IMDb
