Today (9 March) marks the birthday of American actor Kerr Smith, known widely for playing Jack McPhee on TV-drama ‘Dawson’s Creek’.

Actor Kerr Smith recalled being targeted by protestors in an interview on the ‘Pod Meets World’ podcast in November 2025—  after his character on ‘Dawson’s Creek’ made history with the first kiss between two men on American network television.

The scene marked a landmark moment for LGBTQ+ representation, during the season three finale, Smith kissed prep school student Ethan Brody (Adam Kaufman), and the actor recalled he almost came face-to-face with protestors who were “angry as hell”.
