Benjamin Everett Jordan (September 8, 1896 – March 15, 1974) was a Democratic U.S. Senator from the state of North Carolina from 1958 until 1973. He lived most of his life in Alamance County, North Carolina. Born in Randolph County, North Carolina, Jordan served overseas in the United States Army during World War I. In the 1920s, he entered the textile business when an uncle asked him to run a recently purchased mill in Saxapahaw, North Carolina, renamed Sellers Manufacturing Co. Eventually, Jordan bought the mill and ran it successfully for decades, turning management over to his sons, Benjamin Everett Jordan, Jr., and John M. Jordan, while attending to his duties in the Senate. He became increasingly active in the North Carolina Democratic Party. He attended Duke University, which later awarded him an honorary doctoral degree.
