Reid Smith - Biography
Reid Smith (May 8, 1949 - October 16, 2001) was a Los Angeles, California, real estate businessman, who maintained a sporadic acting career from 1970 until about 1990.
By 1980, he was cast to replace Charles Frank in the role of Lester Hackett in the CBS western miniseries, The Chisholms, with Robert Preston in the lead as the patriarch of a Virginia family headed by wagon train to California.
Other Smith roles included that of “Wells” in the 1972 episode "A Place to Hide" on NBC's Bonanza, as “Wheels” in the 1980 episode “Duelling Skates” of ABC's Mork and Mindy, as “Vic McGraw” in the 1980 episode “Mrs. Rosco P. Coltrane” of CBS's The Dukes of Hazard, and as “Slade” in the episode entitled “Annie Oakley” on CBS's Airwolf, with Jan-Michael Vincent.
He appeared as Teddy Bennett in the 1983 episode “Steele Among the Living” of NBC's Remington Steele and as Tad in the 1983 miniseries Malibu. He guest starred as “Larry” in the 1987 episode “The Siege, Part 2” of ABC's Dynasty. In 1990, he appeared as Douglas Wittenberg in the episode “On Your Honor” of NBC's L.A. Law. His most recent role was as Mr. Battung in the 2004 film Silent Years.
In 1980, Smith was taking tennis lessons from his friend Sonny Bono, prior to the singer's subsequent career in Republican politics. People magazine quoted Bono: “Reid has this naive optimism. He's not afraid to be a little boy." At the time, Smith was constructing a $3.5 million, then a much larger amount than in subsequent decades, Moroccan mansion with a wraparound view of Beverly Hills. Reid dated Jacquelyn Smith prior to the debut of Charlie's angels on television. Reid dated actress Maude Adams for several years.
