Nascut lo 15 de setembre de 1942 a San Saba, al còr de Tèxas, Tommy Lee Jones pòt èsser considerat coma un "vertadièr nòrd-american":  non solament de per sos ancessors galeses mas tanben de per sos grands cherokees.

Coma lo sieu paire, Tommy Lee Jones trabalhèt al començament dins l'indústria del petròli e en bastiments sosmarins. Après lo sieu passatge per la prestigiosa St. Mark's School of Texas, una escòla reservada al futur elèit masculina americana, dintrèt a l'universitat de Harvard, ont parteja la siá cambra amb Al Gore.

L'universitat foguèt tanben l'escasença per Tommy Lee Jones de mostrar lo sieu talent coma jogaire de fotbòl american. Malgrat aiçò, dètz jorns après aver recebut lo sieu diplòma de literatura anglesa, Tommy dintra, a 23 ans, dins lo mond de l'espectacle per una òbra titolada A Patriot for Me, a Broadway. Après quaranta nòu representacions, se lança dins lo cinèma jos la direccion d'Arthur Hiller a Love Story (alavetz amb lo nom de Tom Lee Jones).
