Curtis Brandt Smith, Jr., known as Brandt Smith or as C. Brandt Smith, Jr. (born April 18, 1959), is an associate professor from Jonesboro, Arkansas, who is a Republican member of the Arkansas House of Representatives for District 58 in a portion of Craighead County in the northeastern portion of his state.
A native of Albuquerque, New Mexico, Smith was the son of Curtis Smith, Sr. (c. 1935-2002), a Southern Baptist pastor for forty years who earlier served in the United States Navy Reserve, the United States Army, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation in Washington, D.C. Mrs. Smith, the former Deloris Jean Williams, was a homemaker who was also employed by Wal-Mart.
Smith's boyhood home, high school, and information prior to 1986 are not available, but his father, and presumably Smith as well, lived in a number of locations ranging from Panama City, Florida, to Birmingham, Alabama; Memphis, Tennessee, and Paragould, Arkansas.
