Smith was born in Denver, Colorado. He received his D.Sc in 1921 from John Hopkins University School of Hygiene and Public Health. From 1928 until his retirement in 1961 he was the Professor of Physiology and Director of the Physiological Laboratories at New York University School of Medicine.His research work focused on the kidney and he discovered inulin at the same time as A.N. Richards. Smith authored several books including From Fish to Philosopher, Man and His Gods and The Kidney: Structure and Function in Health and Disease.Smith was a lead scientist in the field of renal physiology. His elegant experiments on the kidney in the 1930s proved beyond any doubt that it operated according to physical principles, both as a filter and a secretory organ, eliminating the last vestige of vitalism in physiology.He also served on the board of trustees of Science Service, now known as Society for Science & the Public from 1952-1955.As a memorial to Smith in 1963 the New York Heart Association created the Homer W. Smith Award in Renal Physiology.
