Vince Jordan was born and reared in Nashville, Tennessee where he was mistakenly led to believe that he was a Jew. After high school, he left Nashville and his Southern twang behind only to pick up an often troublesome dry wit which remains the cause for the sometimes conversational discomfort coupled with an always awkward apology.Upon crossing the Mason-Dixon, Vince went to Yale where his acting bug was subsequently born and promptly ignored in favor of a major in architecture, the source of much guilt for the all-nighters that he should have pulled but didn't. Vince then moseyed out to Northern California for grad school and then back east to New York, where he assumed the position of worker in the field of architecture, and was given the glorious opportunity to make up for all of those wonderful all-nighters he had so foolishly passed up years before.In New York the dormant caterpillar that was Vince's acting bug awoke and transformed itself into an eager yet inexperienced little moth with credits that only a mother could love. Then, thanks to good representation and a dwindling winter wardrobe, the moth flew back to California, Southern California this time, and finally blossomed into a butterfly, albeit skinny and [generally] clean-shaven with hairy legs. Television and film work followed beginning with educational films for Disney and advancing into commercials, series TV [from Doogie Howser MD to Jimmy Kimmel Live] and independent films.Along the way, Vince crossed the great hyphenate divide, first by adding "writer," with his award-winning opus-cum-comedic short screenplay The Pothole. "Comedian" soon joined his hyphenate junta.Vince lives and performs in Los Angeles and is currently writing a new comedy web series called Silver Tongue. Show less «
