Mr. Jordan just finished a stint on the two hit series, Ally McBeal and Boston Public as 'Dr. Benjamin Harris' cloning expert turned new-age reverend turned science teacher turned drama coach.

Mr. Jordan has also had a successful stage career. He played 'Brother Boy' Tammy Wynette fixated drag queen, in Del Shores hit play Sordid Lives and went on to star in the film adaptation of that play. He also has won every award for best supporting actor LA gives in theatre (Back Stage West Garlands, LA Weekly, LA Drama Critics Circle) for his portrayal of 'Peanut Leroy' sodden aging homosexual in the runaway hit, Southern Baptist Sissies.
