Jeremy Jordan (born September 19, 1973) is an American actor and singer.

Jordan was born Donald Henson in Hammond, Indiana, and raised in nearby Calumet City, Illinois. Both are just south of the city of Chicago, Illinois and are considered part of the metropolitan area. Jordan began his entertainment career in 1993 releasing, Try My Love on Giant Records. The album yielded the Top 20 single, "The Right Kind Of Love" (which was co-written and co-produced by Robbie Nevil), which reached #14 in the U.S., and "Wannagirl", which also charted on the Billboard Hot 100. Additionally, "My Love Is Good Enough" and "Try My Love" were featured in the film Airborne. "The Right Kind Of Love" music video was featured during the end credits of Beverly Hills, 90210 and was also on the television series' soundtrack.

Jordan was one of the teenage "heartthrobs" prominently featured in Bop and Tiger Beat magazines. His popularity, music wise, peaked with concerts around the globe.

A remix album, Jeremy The Remix was released to overseas markets in late 1993. Reportedly, Jordan had completed several tracks for a third album but with the emergence of grunge and alt-rock, the pop project was shelved and the music never saw daylight.

Rather than continuing in music, Jordan transitioned into acting. He's appeared in a number of movies, both made-for-TV and theatrical, including Never Been Kissed (1999).
