Jeremy Tucker (born January 11, 1974 in San Antonio, Texas) is an American gay pornographic actor.

Born in Texas, he moved to Southern California with his family at age thirteen. His initiation into the industry was with the Nick Richmond Website and, though that site never took off, Jeremy did make a few connections which facilitated his foray into performing before the camera.

Prior to working in porn, Jeremy tried his hand at several other careers, most recently selling insurance and working as a glazier prior to that, but the career limitations of those occupations, combined with the idea that a job should be more than a mere livelihood caused him to turn his sights to performing. Jeremy is represented by talent agent David Forest who, in addition to getting him gigs in front of the camera, also books him on dance tours. He has danced in Manhattan, Providence, Indianapolis and the gay Mecca of the South, Atlanta.

Jeremy is of Black and Puerto Rican descent, but has escaped the ethnic pigeon-hole that many performers fall into, a limitation that often results in fees that are well below those of the more high profile, white porn stars.

Tucker was nominated as "Best Newcomer," "Gay Performer of the Year" and "Best Supporting Actor" for Devil is a Bottom at the GayVN Awards. He won the GayVN award and 2000 Adult Erotic Gay Video Award for "Best Group Scene" with Seth Adkins, Hans Ebson, Cameron Fox, Jeremy Jordan, Billy Kincaid, Tristan Paris, Emilio Santos, and Nick Young, for their performance in Out of Athens (Falcon Studios).
