Edward Ralph "Teddy" Smouha OBE (17 December 1908 – 1 April 1992) was a British track and field athlete who competed mainly in the 100 metres. Edward Smouha was born at Chorlton-cum-Hardy, one of the nine children of Rosa Ades and Joseph Smouha. His father was an Iraqi Jew born in Baghdad who emigrated to Manchester, England, and became a successful cotton manufacturer. He later drained swampland outside Alexandria, Egypt to create a new suburb, Smouha City. In numerous media sources, he has been attributed the name Ellis, causing confusion. Ellis Smouha was in fact his older brother.
