Johnny Smith hails from Houston, Texas, where he attended the High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, studying theater. He graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in film before landing in Los Angeles. Since being in LA, he has acted in over 35 commercials, written, acted in, and directed numerous short films, and was featured on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno when his YouTube series Scaring Evelyn went viral.  He is an avid fan of comedy and tries to share that through his crude collage work.  When he isn’t filming a Razzie Award-winning worthy lip sync video, the self-proclaimed “pervARTist” enjoys image manipulation while listening to episodes of The Howard Stern Show or half-watching The Real Housewives of Blah Blah.
