William O. Campbell is the actor who plays Jordan Collier on the 4400. He has made a successful career out of playing villains, such as a messianic abduction survivor on The 4400 (although this character is not necessarily villainous), a college professor accused of raping a student (played by a fellow Law & Order: SVU special guest star, Shannyn Sossamon) in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, and serial killer Ted Bundy in the made-for-TV movie The Stranger Beside Me, based on true crime author Ann Rule's book. He is not related to Conchita Campbell, who plays Maia.

According to imdb.com, Billy is the heir to the Champion spark plug fortune. According to a commentary, Billy is a Civil War reenactor. He has complete uniforms and gear for both the North and the South and fights for both sides. He took a year off to sail around the world, delivering medical supplies to remote locations. The producers of The 4400 dealt with his absence by assassinating his character, Jordan Collier. When Billy returned to work, Jordan was miraculously ressurected.
