Kevin Smith Kevin Patrick Smith (born August 2, 1970) is an American filmmaker, actor, comic book writer, author, and podcaster. He came to prominence with the low-budget comedy film "Clerks" (1994), which he wrote, directed, co-produced, and acted in as the character Silent Bob of stoner duo Jay and Silent Bob. Jay and Silent Bob have appeared in Smith's follow-up films "Mallrats", "Chasing Amy", "Dogma", and "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" which were set primarily in his home state of New Jersey.
