Robert Christopher Smith

Robert Christopher Smith is a Louisville, Kentucky-born/ LA-based writer, actor, and director. He obtained his BA in English/Creative Writing from the University of Kentucky and his Masters in Applied Linguistics from Alliant International University in San Diego, CA. After spending nearly two decades in professional sales and entrepreneurship, Smith boldly chose to leave his financial successes of that world behind in pursuit of his lifelong creative goals in the film world. His feature directorial debut with "Vengeance Turns" brings together his love of indie film, westerns, and comic books. Over the five years that "Vengeance Turns" was being developed, Smith wrote and/or directed a whole series of short films including "Cut", "Taker", "Her Own Demons", "Maddest Love", and "Relatable" (Honorable Mention and Featured at several Festivals); with cast members from "Vengeance Turns" found in each. Smith plans to continue writing, developing and directing his own short and feature films with two other completed feature screenplays ready, and his first horror feature "Spread: Pigs to Slaughter" shoots in September 2022.
