Roger is an actor, writer, and director whose work has been internationally acclaimed.
Roger created and performed the Obie Award-winning "A Huey P. Newton Story" and adapted it into a Peabody Award-winning telefilm, directed by his longtime colleague, Spike Lee. For Mr. Lee's Oscar-nominated "Do The Right Thing," Mr. Smith created the stuttering hero Smiley, one of many in a gallery of memorable characters for the stage and screen.
Also among his historically-inspired performances are "Frederick Douglass Now," "Christopher Columbus 1992," and the award-winning duet "Inside the Creole Mafia," a "not-too-dark comedy" in collaboration with New Orleans native Mark Broyard. Mr. Smith also directed the distinguished performance trio Culture Clash in their Bessie Award-winning "Radio Mambo."
Roger's most recent work includes a new solo, "The Watts Towers Project," and the Spalding Gray retrospective "Leftover Stories to Tell," both cited among the best of 2006 by the Los Angeles Times; and "Who Killed Bob Marley?," which inaugurated Harlem's new GatehouseTheater.
Roger co-stars with Russell Crowe and Denzel Washington in Ridley Scott's upcoming Vietnam War era epic, "American Gangster."
