Jeremy "Jerry" Horne (played by David Patrick Kelly) is the playboy brother of Ben Horne in the series Twin Peaks. He is his brother's right-hand-man and emissary, travelling around the world to act in Ben's place for his various international business dealings. Although he and Ben share similar interests and personas-- womanizing, cut-throat businessmen-- Jerry publically demonstrates all of the negative traits his brother keeps hidden beneath a verneer of sophictication and class. The brother's contrasting public personas are reflected in their attire: While Ben wears tailored, neutral-colored business suits, Jerry dresses in a variety of bizarre, multi-colored outfits seemingly culled together from his visits to different countries around the world and has his head shaved into a strange hairdo that incorporates both the buzz cut and hi-top fade.
Jerry is a supporting character on the series, who never received his own plotline; he primarily served to give Ben an intellectually equal associatie, as Ben was otherwise surrounded by low-level thugs such as Leo Johnson and Hank Jennings; although not nearly as intelligent as his brother, Jerry nonetheless demonstrated world-awareness beyond that of most of the town's population.
He is uncle of Audrey and Johnny Horne.
