Biography

Pam Dawber attended North Farmington High School and Oakland Community College. She began her career as a fashion model with Wilhelmina Models and went on to a career as an actress. From 1978 to 1982, she played one of the title roles in the ABC sitcom "Mork & Mindy": Mindy McConnell, the comedic foil and eventual love interest for the extraterrestrial Mork from the planet "Ork", played by Robin Williams. (In the 1992 movie "Stay Tuned", Dawber would parody her "Mork & Mindy" character, starring with John Ritter, who would parody his "Three's Company" role.) From 1986 to 1988, Dawber again had the title role in a series, playing Samantha Russell in the CBS sitcom "My Sister Sam"; her co-star, Rebecca Schaeffer, was murdered a year later.

Dawber has a four-octave soprano voice. She featured as Mabel, in a Los Angeles Civic Light Opera production (based on the Joseph Papp/New York Shakespeare Festival production) of Gilbert & Sullivan's "The Pirates of Penzance".

Pam Dawber is a national spokeswoman for Big Brothers Big Sisters of America.

Personal life

She is married to actor Mark Harmon, with whom she has two sons; Sean Thomas Harmon (born April 26, 1988) and Tyrone "Ty" Christian Harmon (born June 25, 1992).
