Jamie Silverstein (born December 23, 1983 in Pittsburgh, PA) is an American figure skater. She most recently competed in ice dance with Ryan O'Meara. They joined forces in 2005 and captured the bronze medal at the 2006 U.S. Figure Skating Championships. The pair also competed in the 2006 Winter Olympics. Prior to skating with O'Meara, Silverstein competed with Justin Pekarek, with whom she won the 1999 World Junior title, and briefly skated with Brandon Forsyth after the partnership with Pekarek ended. After she and Forsyth parted ways, she left competitive skating for a period. During that time, she struggled with an eating disorder (which she now discusses quite frankly) and attended Cornell University.

In the spring of 2006, Silverstein and O'Meara announced they would be taking time off from competitive skating. She planned to return to school and complete her degree.
