Personal Life
Harbaugh married his wife, Jacqueline M. "Jackie" (Cipiti), in 1961. Their two sons are the first pair of brothers to serve as head coaches in NFL history: Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh and San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh (himself a former NFL quarterback). Both brothers eventually participated in the Harbaugh Bowl on Thanksgiving Day, 2011, which was a day before Jack and Jackie's 50th wedding anniversary. They will also participate in another Harbaugh Bowl when they coach the two teams in Super Bowl XLVII. Their daughter Joani's husband Tom Crean is the head basketball coach for the Indiana University Hoosiers. Harbaugh is a member of the Bowling Green State University chapter of Phi Delta Theta Fraternity.

Famous quotes containing the words personal life, personal and/or life:
“He hadn’t known me fifteen minutes, and yet he was ... ready to talk ... I was still to learn that Munshin, like many people from the capital, could talk openly about his personal life while remaining a dream of espionage in his business operations.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“I want relations which are not purely personal, based on purely personal qualities; but relations based upon some unanimous accord in truth or belief, and a harmony of purpose, rather than of personality. I am weary of personality.... Let us be easy and impersonal, not forever fingering over our own souls, and the souls of our acquaintances, but trying to create a new life, a new common life, a new complete tree of life from the roots that are within us.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
