After leaving audiences in stitches from two sold out engagements in 2014, Emmy Award winner Leslie Jordan returns to Feinstein's at the Nikko in Say Cheese! My Life in Front of the Camera in which he'll humorously explore his relationship with good friend and professional photographer Jim Cox.
Leslie Jordan is one of the most recognizable faces in entertainment. His quirky journey towards stardom includes a brief career as a jockey after arriving in Hollywood in 1982 with $1500 sewn into his clothing by his steel magnolia mother. Since then, Jordan has enjoyed the full show business spectrum including the lean days, bumps in the road, victory laps from awards recognition and an unexpected downward slope. He has faced being type cast as well as the challenges to remain relevant and avoid being put "out to pasture" by a youth obsessed culture and industry. Through it all, Leslie Jordan has remained constant, relevant and funny!
He won the Emmy Award in 2006 for "Will & Grace" and has also since created memorable supporting roles and guest star appearances on "The Exes," "Raising Hope," "The Neighbors" and "American Horror Story." On the big screen, he was seen in "The Help" as well as the cult film sensation "Sordid Lives."
His autobiographical stage plays My Life on the Pink Carpet, Stories I Can't Tell Mamma and Fruit Fly have earned him rapturous reviews and sold out audiences, not only in the US, but also the UK, Canada and Mexico.
When Mr. jordan is not performing on stage or screen, he is an active fund raiser, equal rights activist and all around Southern Baptist celebutante.
