Also in 1996, Smith appeared opposite Michelle Trachtenberg in Harriet the Spy. After a role in the 1994 children's film Andre, he starred in the 1995 direct-to-video release Leapin' Leprechauns! and its 1996 sequel, Spellbreaker: Secret of the Leprechauns. Smith began acting when he was fourteen months old, and appeared in a Tide television commercial and in store catalogues. Smith has two brothers, including fellow actor Douglas Smith, and a sister. Smith's mother appeared in several of the films that his father produced during the 1980s.
Smith was born in Toronto, Ontario, the son of Terrea ( née Oster), a teacher from the United States, and Maurice Smith, a producer of low-budget films originally from the United Kingdom. Smith has appeared in several Hollywood films, and is known for his roles as Alan Abernathy in Small Soldiers, Ephram Brown on The WB television series Everwood, and as Dov Epstein on the ABC/ Global police drama series Rookie Blue.
Presnell wrote that the Florida government had failed to sufficiently narrow the breadth of the ban to prevent its unjust application and its “inevitable clash with the Florida ‘Parents’ Bill of Rights’ and other laws.Gregory Edward Smith (born July 6, 1983) is a Canadian actor, writer, and director. In a move the DeSantis administration likely did not see coming, Presnell cited previous laws passed by the Florida governor in his reasoning for placing an injunction on the law.
In his ruling, Presnell sided with Hamburger Mary’s, a restaurant that hosts drag performances and sued the DeSantis administration, claiming that the restrictions implemented by the act were too broad and not only violated their first amendment rights but unfairly harmed their business. The law, dubbed the “ Protection of Children Act,” would allow “the Department of Business and Professional Regulation to fine, suspend, or revoke the license of any public lodging, establishment, or public food service establishment if the establishment admits a child to an adult live performance.” DeSantis previously said that drag shows, which are covered by the ban, “sexualize” children. Federal Judge Gregory Presnell has placed a preliminary injunction on a Florida bill banning individuals under the age of 18 from attending drag performances.
