Here's What Brooke Smith Is Doing Now Since Leaving Grey's Anatomy

If you thought Smith looked familiar when you saw her on "Grey's," it may be because in 1991, she appeared in the film "Silence of the Lambs" — yup, she was the girl at the bottom of the hole (via IMDb and EW). The star would go on parts in various TV shows from "Six Feet Under," to "Law & Order" before taking on the role of Dr. Hahn.

Since parting ways with the ABC series, Smith has enjoyed successes on the small screen that saw her appearing on "Criminal Minds," "American Horror Story," and "Graceland."

Then, in 2013, she landed the part of nurse Frances on "Ray Donovan" (via The Hollywood Reporter). After stints on "Nashville" and "Hand of God," in 2017, Smith then took on another recurring role on "Bosch" playing Captain Ellen Lewis, and Sheriff Jane Greene on "Bates Motel." The actress has enjoyed steady TV work since, appearing on "The Good Doctor," "Chicago Med," and "Big Sky." Amazon's 2021 race drama, "Them," also saw Smith playing realtor Helen Koistra (via Refinery29).
