Born in London, Ontario, Canada to Italian parents, Jordan identified a passion for performance at an early age. He was cast as Matthew Cuthbert in Anne of Green Gables (1987) while only twelve years old, playing the elder father of the protagonist Anne. A 2-year Meisner graduate of the reputable Baron Brown Studio - School for the Dramatic Arts in Santa Monica, Jordan's passion for acting and its craft saw him hone his early performance work in lead roles in independent films.Concentrating on feature film acting, Jordan challenges himself often against type. He did so to capture the lead serial killer role in Friend (2009), an independent short feature directed by Curt Thackery which generated local acclaim and was submitted to Film Festivals like Shriekfest and Sundance. His proclivity for complicated characters capable of varied range and emotion continued with his lead role in Makua Charley (2013), a film festival award-winning dramatic thriller centered on Hawaiian mythology. Jordan followed this with a bit part in Cameron Crowe's Welcome Back (2015), then played two different maligning lead characters in two different timelines in The Gunman (2016). He's proven the rare ability to play both, hero or rogue, and brings texture and unique choices to each. He has roles in several upcoming films, and continues to advance his performance work in various industry productions. 2019 will see him act in, write, and produce a crime saga called Brothers in Arms, an original story set in modern day Los Angeles.As a multi-hyphenate, Jordan supplements his acting roles with activities in entertainment production as an actor, screenwriter, producer, and published author. Jordan's first screenplay earned a quarterfinal placing at Creative Screenwriting's Expo Competition, and he's had screenplays place well in the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences' Nicholl Fellowships. A strong advocate of building community inside the profession and out, Jordan is active in many Screen Actors Guild Foundation programs and community service pursuits. Hide
