Occasional backup singer, rock groupie, drug dealer, and legal secretary, who served 15 months in the California state prison system for injecting John Belushi with a fatal dose of heroin and cocaine in 1982. Her earliest association was with Levon Helm, who later joined The Band, in 1963. She later had an affair with Gordon Lightfoot and was the inspiration for his song Sundown. After the affair ended, Smith returned to Helm and the circle who comprised The Band.
