Loring B. Smith(November 18, 1890 – July 8, 1981) was an American vaudeville, stage, film, radio and television actor, frequently of broadly comic and gregarious characters. He enjoyed a 65-year career involved in many facets of the entertainment business. At age 50, he became a Broadway actor, appearing in twelve productions between November 1940 and March 1964. In most of those, he was, as usual, billed as "Senator" or "Mayor". His Broadway debut came in Glamour Preferred (1940). While the majority of his assignments placed him in supporting roles, he was given a co-starring billing in the comedy Be Your Age, with Conrad Nagel. His most memorable Broadway role came nearly three years later when he portrayed Horace Vandergelder in Thornton Wilder's The Matchmaker.
