NCIS star Mark Harmon has been working in Hollywood for fifty years but has chosen to keep a low profile, living a quiet life with his wife, Pam Dawber, at their home in Brentwood, Los Angeles.

Ty works as a screenwriter, while Sean is an actor, starring as a young Leroy Jethro Gibbs – his father's character until his departure in 2021 – in flashback episodes of NCIS from 2008 onwards.
Mark previously opened up about the joy of having his son join him on set in a rare interview with Entertainment Tonight, telling the outlet: "I'm proud of him taking his work seriously and how he approaches being an actor – not just on this show."
He added: "I'm proud of both our boys, and they work hard at what they do and I’m proud that they get up in the morning and try to do that every day.

It was the first time she appeared on the show, and came at the end of Mark's run, as he stepped down that same year after almost 20 years with the show
