Barnard Unibertsitatean ikasle zela, Columbia Unibertsitatean ikasten ari zen Michael Meyer ezagutu zen. 1955ean ezkondu egin ziren, eta biak Chicagoko Unibertsitatera joan ziren. Meyerrek antropologia-ikasketak egin zituen, eta Jordanek ere izena eman zuen unibertsitatean, baina laster Barnard Unibertsitatera itzuli eta han geratu zen 1957ra arte. 1958an bikotearen haur bakarra jaio zen, Christopher David Meyer. 1965ean, dibortziatu egin ziren.
Idatzietan, Jordanek bisexual gisa identifikatzen du bere burua.[1]
