Shawnee Smith was a daughter of James H. Smith, a financial planner and former US Air Force pilot, and Patricia Ann, an oncology nurse. Her parents moved to California when she was one, and divorced when she was two. Smith went to Ranchito Avenue Elementary School in Panorama City, Los Angeles, and later to the Madison Jr. High in North Hollywood. Shawnee matriculated in 1987 from the North Hollywood High School.

When still a child, Smith began acting on stage in “A Christmas Carol”, and made her television debut in a McDonald’s commercial in 1978. In 1982, Smith had her first movie role in John Houston’s Oscar-nominated adaptation “Annie” starring Aileen Quinn, Albert Finney, and Carol Burnett. After appearing in a few TV series, Shawnee had roles in “Not My Kid” (1985), “Crime of Innocence” (1985), and “Iron Eagle” (1986). Her net worth was well set.

In 1986, she played Sonia Russell in nine episodes of “All Is Forgiven”, and the next year secured a part in Carl Reiner’s “Summer School” with Mark Harmon, Kirstie Alley, and Robin Thomas. By the end of the ’80’s, Shawnee starred in “I Saw What You Did” (1988) and Chuck Russell’s “The Blob” (1988). She continued with “Who’s Harry Crumb?” (1989) and appeared in six episodes of “A Brand New Life” (1989-1990).
Shawnee had her prominent years in the ’90’s, beginning with roles in TV mini-series “Lucky Chances” (1990) and Michael Cimino’s “Desperate Hours” (1990) starring Mickey Rourke, Anthony Hopkins, and Mimi Rogers. She then appeared in Stephen King’s-inspired series “The Stand” (1994) and one episode of “The X-Files” (1994). The mid-’90’s was the busiest period in her professional life, as she played in numerous films and series, including the Oscar-winning drama “Leaving Las Vegas” (1995) with Nicolas Cage, Elisabeth Shue, and Julian Sands, and “Armageddon” (1998) starring Bruce Willis, Billy Bob Thornton, and Ben Affleck. Her net worth was rising considerably.
One of Smith’s most notable roles was in the series “Becker”, in which she played the character of Linda in 129 episodes from 1998 to 2004. However, she is probably best known for starring in the first three “Saw” films that grossed around $100 million, $150 million, and $165 million respectively, significantly increasing Smith’s net worth. By the end of the 2000’s, Shawnee had parts in ”The Island” (2005), starring Scarlett Johansson, Ewan McGregor, and Djimon Hounsou, “The Grudge 3” (2009), and the last part of the “Saw” franchise which wasn’t as successful as its predecessors.

In 2012, Smith appeared in Billy Bob Thornton’s “Jayne Mansfield’s Car”, before starring as Jennifer Goodson in the series “Anger Management” (2012-2014) along with Charlie Sheen who plays her husband. Most recently, Shawnee played in “Grace Unplugged” (2013), “Savannah Sunrise” (2016), and is currently in post-production of “Believe” that will come out by the end of 2016.

In 2000, Smith formed the punk/metal band called Fydolla Ho, and they had the album “Untied” released in 2001 before they disbanded in 2004. In 2008, Shawnee and Missi Pyle formed a duet and released a debut album “It’s OK to Be Happy”, and established the record company Urban Prairie Records. However, they ended their collaboration in 2011, even though a second album was planned.

Regarding her personal life, Shawnee Smith married the photographer Jason Reposar in 1998 and divorced him in 2003; Smith has a daughter with him and two sons with musician Kai Mattoon, but her marriage with Mattoon lasted for only a year, from 2005 to 2006.
