Tyrone William Power IV (born January 22, 1959), usually billed as Tyrone Power, Jr., is an American actor, the only son of Hollywood star Tyrone Power and his third wife, Deborah Jean Montgomery Minardos.

He is the fourth actor to bear the name Tyrone Power, the first being his great-great-grandfather, the Irish actor, Tyrone Power (1795-1841). He is known as Tyrone Power, Jr. because his father is the most famous of the four (his grandfather became known retroactively as Tyrone Power, Sr.).

Ty was born in Los Angeles, raised in Mexico, then went on to work in numerous stage productions and movies in New York and Los Angeles, continuing a long family tradition. Sadly, Ty never met his father, the famous Hollywood matinee idol of the same name, who passed away suddenly at the age of 44 while filming in Spain. Ty was born six weeks later.Fortunately, through his father’s numerous films and writings, as well as friends who have generously shared their stories and impressions over the years, Ty has been able to get a true picture of the kind, generous and talented man his father was. This is a great source of personal pride.

Ty currently lives and works in Los Angeles with his wife, Canadian comedienne Carla Collins, and their two rescue dogs, Miles and Dr. Zira, and is currently writing a screenplay about the Golden Age of Hollywood.
