Kevin Smith

August 2, 1970

Red Bank, New Jersey

Wife: Jennifer Schwalbach (April 1999 - present)

Daughter: Harley Quinn (born June 26, 1999)

    Kevin Smith made his directorial debut in 1994 with the surprise critical and commercial hit, "Clerks." The film collected the Filmmakers Trophy Award at the 1994 Sundance Film Festival as well as the International Critics Week Award at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival that same year. With friend and producer Scott Mosier and their production company, View Askew, Smith has since continued to write and direct cutting edge independent film such as "Mallrats" and "Chasing Amy," for which Smith won the Independent Spirit Award for Best Original Screenplay. In addition to his directing credits, Smith also co-executive produced with Mosier the Academy Award winning film "Good Will Hunting."

     Among his other projects, Smith scripted the highly anticipated "Superman Lives" for Warner Bros. and collaborated with indie film guru John Pierson on his book Spike, Mike, Slackers and Dykes, a chronicle of the last ten years in the world of low/no budget film.

     An avid comic book fan, Smith is the proud owner of Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash, a comic book haven located in Redbank, New Jersey. Kevin has written his own comic titles such as "Jay & Silent Bob" and "Clerks: The Comic." He has also begun working on an animated version of "Clerks," which is slated to begin airing on ABC-TV early next year.
