Cyril Smith (actor)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Cyril Bruce Smith (4 April 1892 - 5 March 1963) was a Scottish actor who began his career as a child in the 1900s and went on to appear in over 100 films between 1914 and his death almost 50 years later. Smith first became known as a child stage actor, and by the age of 13 travelled to New York to appear in a production of the J. M. Barrie play Alice-Sit-By-The Fire, with the New York Times referring to him as "one of the best-known child actors in England." Smith's film career began in 1914 in the Wilfred Noy-directed Old St. Paul's and he appeared in almost 20 other silent films of the 1910s and 1920s before making the transition to sound.
