“Mark Harmon’s Romantic Revelation: How He Wooed Pam Dawber in a Surprising Way!
In a heartwarming interview with PEOPLE, NCIS star Mark Harmon shared the charming story of how he first asked out his wife of 36 years, actress Pam Dawber. Rather than relying on a friend’s help, Harmon took matters into his own hands and cold-called Dawber to arrange their first date.
“I said, ‘Can I just call? Can I get a number and just cold call?’ And so I did,” Harmon recalled, displaying his bold and direct approach to romance.
Their first phone call led to a spontaneous date that same night, and the rest is history. Harmon and Dawber tied the knot exactly a year later, cementing their enduring love story.
Dawber, renowned for her role in Mork & Mindy alongside Robin Williams, and Harmon, as Leroy Jethro Gibbs in NCIS, have shared a beautiful journey together, raising two children, Sean and Ty.
As Harmon transitions from his iconic role on NCIS, he delves into writing, with his debut historical non-fiction book, “Ghosts of Honolulu: A Japanese Spy, a Japanese American Spy Hunter, and the Untold Story of Pearl Harbor,” set for release later this month. The book promises to shed light on a fascinating chapter of history, showcasing Harmon’s multifaceted talents beyond the screen.”
