Professor (Dr.) Henry McCord is the husband of former United States Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord and father of Stevie, Alison, and Jason McCord. Upon his wife's election as President of the United States, Henry is the First Gentleman. He is portrayed by Tim Daly.

Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Henry is the son of Patrick McCord (Tom Skerritt), a steel worker, and an unnamed mother. He has three siblings, Maureen, Shane, and Erin. As a youth, Henry was an altar boy.

After graduating from high school, Henry attended the University of Virginia on a scholarship, where he met his future wife, Elizabeth Adams, and was a member of the Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps.[1] He was commissioned in the United States Marine Corps after graduation and served five years on active duty. He was assigned to the 3rd Marine Air Wing out of Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, and he flew F-18 Hornets during Operation Desert Storm. Henry mustered out of the Corps with the rank of Captain.

After leaving the Marines, Henry returned to academia, where he earned his Ph.D. in Philosophy and became a world-renowned religious scholar. He has published eight books (as of Season 1). He has worked as a professor at UVA, Georgetown University, and the National War College, where he served as Chairman of the newly-created Military Ethics Department.

Not long after his wife was appointed Secretary of State, Henry found himself back in government service, working for, among others, the National Security Agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Central Intelligence Agency as both a consultant and an operative. At the end of Season 3, Henry was named head of the CIA Special Activities Division. He resigned in "Reading the Signs" after failing to receive Congressional support for his operations in Afghanistan, and upon taking his leave, Henry and his team were awarded the National Intelligence Meritorious Unit Citation (having turned down the individual National Intelligence Distinguished Service Medal believing he wasn't in service long enough to qualify for such an award).

In season 5, Henry is hired by President Dalton as his Ethics Advisor, which necessitated him stepping down as Chairman of the National War College's Military Ethics Department.

Conrad Dalton is the President of the United States. He is portrayed by Keith Carradine.

A Marine Corps veteran, Conrad served as a 2nd Lieutenant in the Vietnam War, where he earned a Bronze Star and a Purple Heart. Before entering politics, Conrad was the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, where he served as the mentor and boss of then-CIA Analyst Elizabeth McCord. After the death of Secretary of State Vincent Marsh, President Dalton appointed Elizabeth to succeed him.[2]

In 2008, Conrad ran an unsuccessful campaign to become Governor of California; after the loss, he met his future White House Chief of Staff Russell Jackson (Željko Ivanek).[3]

In Season 3, Conrad failed to receive his party's nomination for a second term as president; Elizabeth convinced him to run as an independent candidate, where he ultimately succeeded in winning a second term.

In "Sound and Fury", Conrad takes a medical leave of absence under Section 3 of the 25th Amendment, leaving Vice President Teresa Hurst serving as acting president. He returned to the Presidency after two months.[3]

In between seasons 5 and 6, Conrad completed his term in office and has been succeeded as President by Elizabeth.

Conrad is married to Lydia Dalton, with whom he has a son, Harrison, who is an on-again, off-again drug addict. He also has a brother, John Dalton.

Blake Moran is the personal assistant to United States Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord. He is portrayed by Erich Bergen.

In season 5, Blake is fired as Secretary McCord's personal assistant—per an agreement between the two that he would seek career advancement within a year—and then rehired as her assistant policy advisor.

In season 6, Blake has become the Personal Secretary to President McCord.

Daisy Grant is the press coordinator for United States Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord. She is portrayed by Patina Miller.

During season 1, Daisy dated fellow State Department staffer Matt Mahoney. In season 3 she dates "Kevin" from Budget and Planning, who turns out to be an undercover operative for the CIA investigating the State Department. He is killed in a weapons-trafficking conspiracy, and Daisy subsequently finds herself pregnant with his child. In the fourth season, Daisy gives birth to a daughter, Joanna Grant. (The character's pregnancy was written into the series to accommodate the actress' real-life pregnancy.)

In season 6, Daisy has become President McCord's White House Press Secretary.

Matthew Asad "Matt" Mahoney is the speechwriter for United States Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord. He is portrayed by Geoffrey Arend.

Born to an Irish-American Catholic father and a Pakistani-American Muslim mother in Illinois, Matt describes himself as agnostic, but is routinely profiled as a Muslim.

Jay Whitman is the senior policy advisor to United States Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord. After the retirement of Nadine Tolliver in Season 4, Jay becomes the new Chief of Staff.[4] He is portrayed by Sebastian Arcelus.

Originally from Connecticut, Jay and his family moved to Dallas when he was a child. His first work in politics came when he helped future Texas Governor Lockwood run for Mayor of Galveston, Texas as a college student.[5] Jay has aspirations of working for the White House someday.

Like most of Elizabeth's senior staff, Jay worked for her predecessor, Vincent Marsh, as his senior policy advisor, and remained with the State Department after his death.

At the start of the series, Jay was married to Abby Whitman, who gave birth to a daughter, Chloe Elizabeth Whitman, in Season 1. In Season 3, Abby left him. When he came back from being kidnapped, Abby wanted to work on things but then he bought a couch. They now share custody of Chloe.

In season 5, Jay meets a world-famous Dutch chess player named Annalies De Runnow while stuck in an Irish airport. They are instantly attracted to one another and, over the course of several hours stuck in transit and many chess games (which Jay loses), they decide to start a long-distance relationship. Although Jay originally joins Elizabeth's presidential campaign at the end of season 5, it is revealed at the beginning of season 6 that he opted to leave politics and start a life in Amsterdam with Annalies.

Jay returns in the season 6 finale for Stevie McCord and Dmitri Petrov's wedding at the White House, where he is warmly embraced by Elizabeth. After teasing her about getting impeached the second he left her staff, he tells her that he and Annalies are returning to DC, and that they are expecting a baby. After Russell Jackson's resignation, Jay becomes Elizabeth's third White House Chief of Staff.

Stephanie "Stevie" McCord is Henry and Elizabeth's oldest child. She is portrayed by Wallis Currie-Wood.

Stevie briefly attended Lovell University. Upon dropping out, she moved back with her parents and two younger siblings. After working for some time, she resumed her studies at Georgetown University. At one point, she applied to Harvard Law school but didn't follow through.

As of Season 3, Stevie serves as an intern to Russell Jackson; when Jackson suffered a heart attack, Stevie saved his life by performing CPR on him.

The show explores Stevie’s challenges with her romantic partners, viz., her 39-year-old boss while working at Microloan; her childhood friend Harrison Dalton, who was newly out of rehab and still struggling with addiction; Jareth Glover, a British astrophysicist to whom she was engaged for over a year before calling it off; and Alexander Mehranov, who turned out to be Henry's CIA asset/analyst Dmitri Petrov.

Allison McCord is Henry and Elizabeth's middle child, her nickname is 'Noodle'. She and Stevie do not get along very well with Stevie often condescending to her for her innocennce. She is portrayed by Katherine Herzer.

Jason McCord is Henry and Elizabeth's youngest child and only son. He is an outspoken anarchist and conspiracy theorist. He is portrayed by Evan Roe.

Russell Jackson is the White House Chief of Staff and right-hand man to President Conrad Dalton. He is portrayed by Željko Ivanek.

Early into Elizabeth's term as Secretary of State, Russell frequently clashed with her due to her unorthodox diplomatic style and lack of political experience. However, they eventually grew to trust each other, as they worked together to oust Dalton's National Security Advisor Craig Sterling (Julian Acosta) and eventually Russell admitted that he'd like to see her succeed Dalton as President.

In "The Unnamed", it is revealed that Russell met Dalton just after the latter's unsuccessful run for Governor of California.[3]

Russell retired after the end of President Dalton's term, but was rehired by President McCord after her acting Chief of Staff Mike B refused to take the job full-time.

Nadine Tolliver is the Chief of Staff to the United States Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord. She is portrayed by Bebe Neuwirth.

A law school graduate, Nadine is a veteran politician who worked for Secretary of State Vincent Marsh since he was a Senator, and the two of them carried on a six-year affair that ended with his death. Due to her closeness with Marsh, it took Nadine a while to warm up to his replacement, but Elizabeth eventually won her over. Nadine also served as an unofficial den-mother to the employees of the Seventh Floor.

In Season 4, Nadine retired from the State Department and moved to the San Francisco Bay Area to be closer to her son and his girlfriend, who were expecting their first child.[6]

Katelyn "Kat" Sandoval is the policy advisor to Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord. She once served as the Chief of Staff to the United States Ambassador to the United Nations, but left politics to become an avocado farmer in California after allegedly throwing a chair at a difficult diplomat. She is bisexual, divorced, and has a child named Desi. She is portrayed by Sara Ramirez.

Mike Barnow (Kevin Rahm) is a political official who is said to drift between the United States Cabinet departments. It is mentioned that he is a Rhodes Scholar, who turned his brilliant legal career into a promising political career that was cut short by a scandalous divorce six years prior to his first appearance before settling into his current job. He is often seen assisting Secretary McCord.

During season 5, Mike ran Elizabeth's campaign for President and after her election, he served as her interim White House Chief of Staff (a job he didn't want) for her first 100 days in office until Elizabeth convinced Russell Jackson to come out of retirement; Mike subsequently became Counselor to the President (the position he originally wanted in her White House).

The first United States Secretary of State in the Dalton administration, Vincent Marsh (portrayed by Brian Stokes Mitchell) is a former Senator who had ambitions of being President. He was killed in a plane crash over the Atlantic Ocean in 2014. He was succeeded by Elizabeth McCord, who investigated his death and learned that he was part of an attempted coup d'état against Iran, but was killed by his co-conspirators when he began having doubts about the plan.

The first female Chairwoman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Ellen Hill, USN (portrayed by Johanna Day) established a strong working friendship with the newly-appointed United States Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord, often bonding over the difficulties of being a woman in such high political positions. She retired from the Navy in 2015, and was succeeded as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs by Gen. Kelsey Reeves.[7]

Since "On the Clock", Ret. Adm. Hill has been serving as the National Security Advisor, taking over for Craig Sterling.[8]

Adm. Hill's son, 1st Lieutenant Andrew Hill, USAF, is an Air Force Academy graduate who Prof. McCord helped file for conscientious objector status after he realized that he would never be able to take a life, no matter how justified the action or noble the cause.[9]

A flag officer in the United States Navy, Admiral Ed Parker (Tony Plana) is often found running military operations in the White House Situation Room.

In Season 6, ADM Parker was relieved of duty and taken into custody for leaking a story about President McCord sending in United States Navy SEALs on a dangerous mission (during which they endured casualties) instead of automated unmanned ground vehicles, telling her that a commander's duty was to the safety of his or her men.

Elizabeth's Chinese counterpart, Ming Chen (Chinese: 陈明) (Francis Jue), serves as the Foreign Minister of the People's Republic of China. He and Elizabeth are frequently on opposite sides and consider each other worthy adversaries.

In season 5, Chen is considered one of the potential successors to Chinese President Li and began amassing support from the People's Party Congress delegates to secure his accession. However, when a fire breaks out in an Italian sweatshop owned by a Chinese company, the US retaliates against China's labor conditions in order to draw it into a debate over improving fairness between itself and its competitors. Forbidden from honoring the victims, Chen also insists to Elizabeth that the US needs to stand down, leading her to the conclusion that he might become China's next president, a situation that would improve relations between their two countries considerably. However, Chen soon receives word that President Li, breaking the precedents set by his predecessors, will reappoint himself for a five-year term. In defiance of the Chinese government, Chen, his daughter and his top aide visit the location of the fire and lay a wreath before it.

The new National Security Advisor in season 2, Craig Sterling (Julian Acosta) is a former United States Department of Defense official and old rival of Secretary McCord. She and Russell Jackson conspire to force Sterling to leave office.

Originally a Captain in the Russian Army, Dmitri Petrov (Chris Petrovski) was attending the National War College when his ethics professor, Henry McCord, recruited him on behalf of the Defense Intelligence Agency to become an American spy in exchange for getting his sick sister medical care in Stockholm, Sweden.

During the Russian conflict with the Ukraine, Dmitri served on the staff of General Vladimir Doroshevich, Russia's ranking officer, while spying for the Americans. As part of the peace negotiations, the United States agreed to give up their spy in the Russian Army in exchange for Russian withdrawal, leaving Dmitri captured and imprisoned for treason and espionage. At the end of Season 2, Dmitri was sent to America in a prisoner exchange and subsequently given a new identity in witness protection.

During Season 4, Dmitri began working for the Central Intelligence Agency as an analyst under Dr. McCord, now the head of the Special Activities Division; he also started dating Stevie McCord. After his identity was compromised, Dmitri was reassigned to Alaska.

The junior (senior as of Season 5) Senator from Arizona, Carlos Morejon (José Zúñiga) is a political rival of both Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord and President Dalton, although he has been known to work with them on certain issues. As of Season 4, Senator Morejon serves as the Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee. In Season 5, he also sits on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

In Season 6, after hearing a rumour that he was being considered as a vice presidential candidate by her Republican opponent, Elizabeth approaches Morejon and asks him to be her running mate. Morejon at first refuses, arguing that while he respected her and acknowledging the fact that they liked each other personally, they remained rivals on almost every single issue. However, Elizabeth told him that it was this difference of opinions that made them perfect for each other, that no matter how much they had fought each other in the past, they had also known when to come together and compromise if it was necessary. Despite his initial reluctance, Morejon eventually agreed and he was announced as Elizabeth's running mate.

The McCord-Morejon ticket eventually defeated both the Republican and Democratic candidates and Carlos Morejon became Vice President of the United States.

Conrad Dalton's Vice President of the United States during his second term, Teresa Hurst (portrayed by Jan Maxwell in Season 3 and by Jayne Atkinson in Season 4) is the former senior Senator of Pennsylvania whose strong politically-moderate stances helped President Dalton win the election as an independent.

In "Sound and Fury", Vice President Hurst becomes acting president of the United States under Section 3 of the 25th Amendment when President Dalton takes a medical leave of absence.

A veteran of the United States Department of State, Ambassador Peter "Pete" Harriman (Skipp Sudduth) served as the United States Special Envoy for Sudan and South Sudan until his resignation in Season 4. He was later appointed United States Ambassador to the United Nations, which he held throughout Season 5. In 1998, Ambassador Harriman was serving at the United States Embassy in Kampala, Uganda during the 1998 United States embassy bombings, during which he was cited for saving lives but lost his girlfriend.

Known as a cantankerous old man, Ambassador Harriman had a reputation as a man who inspired either "grudging respect" or "outright hostility" in others.
