Six years later he portrayed the Bajoran Razka Karn in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine fourth season episode "Indiscretion".
Graduating from Illinois' Quincy University in 1970, Brocksmith began his career on the stage, directing for community theater and various playhouses before ultimately moving on to perform on and off-Broadway. He broke into films in 1978, beginning with the dramas King of the Gypsies and The Squeeze.
In 1980, he had a supporting role in Woody Allen's Stardust Memories, in which his Deep Space Nine co-star Armin Shimerman and Next Generation co-star Brent Spiner made brief appearances. Three years later, Brocksmith would co-star with Spiner in the little-known comedy called Rent Control.
He also had small roles in such films as Who's That Girl? (1987, with Bibi Besch), Scrooged (1988, with John Glover, Michael J. Pollard, and Alfre Woodard), and Relentless (1989, with Meg Foster and Ron Taylor). In 1989, he co-starred with DS9 recurring guest actor Marc Alaimo in action/thriller Tango & Cash, also featuring Teri Hatcher, Michael J. Pollard, Clint Howard, Glenn Morshower, and Richard Hale. The following year, he and Alaimo were among the many Star Trek performers to appear in the science fiction/action film Total Recall. Their co-stars in this film included Ronny Cox, Mel Johnson, Jr., Lycia Naff, Frank Kopyc, Michael Champion, and the voice of Star Trek: Voyager star Robert Picardo.

Also in 1994, Brocksmith co-starred with fellow Next Generation and Deep Space Nine actor Colm Meaney in the comedy The Road to Wellville.
In 1998, he had a small but important role in Gus van Sant's remake of Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho assuming the non-speaking role of the bystander outside the real-estate office where Marion Crane works.
