“Mark Harmon, Ex-NCIS Director, Spills the Heartwarming Secrets of His 37-Year Marriage with Pam Dawber! The 72-Year-Old Actor Dishes on the Spontaneous Cold Call That Sparked Their Love Story – A Tale of Romance Beyond Hollywood!”
“Mark Harmon’s Unveils Whirlwind Love Story: From a Spontaneous Cold Call to 37 Years of Marriage! In a Candid Revelation While Promoting His Upcoming Book ‘Ghosts of Honolulu,’ Harmon Shares the Charm Behind His Lasting Relationship with Pam Dawber.
Their romantic journey ignited when Harmon, now 72, took a leap of faith and made that unexpected call, leading to an impromptu date on the same night and a wedding exactly one year later. Harmon spills the beans on this heartwarming tale as he gears up for the release of his book on November 14.
The love story unfolded around the time Harmon was crowned PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive in 1986, and he has since championed enduring marriages. For 37 years, he and Dawber have thrived on shared values like a strong work ethic, laughter, and effective communication. The proud parents of two sons in their thirties, Sean and Ty, both making their mark in the entertainment industry, stress the significance of these values in sustaining their marriage.
Harmon’s decision to step into the shoes of Special Agent Gibbs on NCIS was driven by his commitment to stay actively involved in his sons’ lives despite the demands of his acting career. Now, at 72, Harmon clarifies that his departure from the CBS series isn’t a retirement but a transition to writing. His debut historical nonfiction book, ‘Ghosts of Honolulu: A Japanese Spy, a Japanese American Spy Hunter, and the Untold Story of Pearl Harbor,’ marks the beginning of his journey from acting to authorship after an impressive 19-season run as Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs.”
