JANE PARK SMITH
Actress, Ambassador,
All-Around Artivist
ABOUT
‘Jane Park Smith’ (aka Jane Park) was born in Seoul, Korea and immigrated to the U.S. when she was nearly three years old. An American actress, model, published author, martial artist, and speaker, her diversified TV credits include Reno911, The Cape, Rizzoli & Isles, 24, Bones, and can be seen in FOX’s drama “Gang Related” as Korean mob boss named Su-Jin. Think of her as the lead “queen-pin” and savory-evil to the core. Her films include ”Street Warrior”, ”Quarantine”, and ”Bring It On.” Coming soon–she brings Raven to life in the film ”Scream at the Devil,” which fleshes out the gripping realities of schizophrenia and then… Mina in “Heartbreak” in which she becomes a top-notch pro-pool player fighting for her son’s welfare. “Heartbreak” is close to her heart as it is a film inspired by real events with redemptive overtones.
She wrapped her first action feature as fight specialist, sadistic bad-a** Tess in Boone-the Bounty Hunter. A first for Jane on screen in many ways! For more on her onscreen activities : http://www.imdb.me/janeparksmith !
Jane loves traveling. Croatia, Germany, and Jamaica are of her favorite work and leisure destinations. It seems South Africa may be one of her next stops soon.
Her heart’s driving desire is to serve and speak out for the voiceless and oppressed worldwide. Once a spokesperson for The Katrina Family Relocation Project and supporter of the Global Volunteer Network, Jane enjoys volunteer opportunities.
She’s earned a Presidential honor as a former Ms. America for her charitable community activism. A published author, her inspirational non-fiction, Rocky the Rescue, gives 90% of proceeds of each book to animal rescue and other charities. She is a certified Health Minister and wellness coach with Hallelujah Acres Lifestyle Centers. To see how this works with her onscreen life, check out www.eatscommunity.org .
Married, Jane, her husband, and their furbabies (including their set-trained canine actor Rocky Bear Smith) live in Los Angeles. Rocky’s book give 90% of proceeds to animal rescue RockyTheRescue.com!
