Jonathan Jacob Charles William Smith (born January 21, 1990) is an American actor. He is perhaps best known for his role in the film Cheaper by the Dozen and its 2005 sequel, as well as his role as Brian in the 2000 Disney Channel Original Movie Phantom of the Megaplex.

Smith was born in Monrovia, California. He has a brother, Nathan, and a sister, Natasha. Smith was in a punk/rock band called My September Story. He enjoys skateboarding, and was also a member of a sponsored skating team in his hometown.

In 1996, Smith began acting at age six, appearing on several television series, including Walker, Texas Ranger, Party of Five, and Step by Step. During this period, he also starred in the made-for-television films Evolution's Child and Phantom of the Megaplex.

Smith was cast as Hansel, opposite Taylor Momsen's Gretel, in the 2002 film version of Hansel and Gretel, which received a limited theatrical release in October 2002. He was subsequently cast as one of twelve children in the family comedy Cheaper by the Dozen, which was released in December 2003 and became a box office success, gaining Smith renown with pre-teen audiences. In 2004, he had a minor role in the film, Troy and appeared on the television series Without a Trace. He also reprised his role of Jake Baker in Cheaper by the Dozen 2, which was released in December 2005 and performed fairly well at the box office.
