Arthur Gordon "Art" Smith (March 23, 1899 - February 24, 1973) was an American film stage and television actor, best-known for playing supporting roles in the 1940s.

The actor appeared in many black-and-white noirish films in supporting roles alongside more handsome and popular movie leads, such as John Garfield in Body and Soul (1947) and Humphrey Bogart in In a Lonely Place (1950).

The grey-haired actor usually played studious types in films. One of his last movie roles was in The Hustler in an uncredited part. He worked on television before finally retiring in 1967.

Smith was one of the victims of the Hollywood blacklist, which ended his film career in 1952. He died, aged 73, in Long Island, New York, from a heart attack.
