Brad Smith was born and raised in the railroad hamlet of Canfield, in southern Ontario. After high school, he worked for the signal department of the Canadian National Railway for three years, and then on a rail project in South Africa for a year. Upon returning from Africa, Smith worked all over the place - Alberta, British Columbia, Texas - at a variety of jobs. Farmer, signalman, insulator, truck driver, bartender, schoolteacher, maintenance mechanic, roofer, and so on. He became a carpenter and built custom homes in Canada. He still works as a carpenter when not writing. He now lives in a ninety-year-old farmhouse near the north shore of Lake Erie, where he writes, fishes, golfs and restores old cars. Smith's noir novel ONE-EYED JACKS was short-listed for the Arthur Ellis Award and the Dashiell Hammett Award. BUSTED FLUSH won the Hamilton Literary Award in 2006. THE RETURN OF KID COOPER, set in 1910 Montana, won the 2019 Spur Award for Best Traditional Western Novel.
