Tommy Okon (the kid in the 1979 Mean Joe Greene Coke ad) is now in his mid-50s. He lives in the New York area, is married with four kids, and owns Castle Rock Marble & Granite, a stone fabrication business in the Bronx. He left acting young and has stayed in occasional contact with Greene over the years.
