THE BOYS NEW BOOK FROM RON AND CLINT HOWARD IS GREAT!
Ron Howard and his younger brother Clint
I just finished this book and I wish there was more! I grew up watching these guys on TV and feel as if I know them. It was a really nice escape from our currently troubled world. 5 stars
Happy Days, The Andy Griffith Show, Gentle Ben—these shows captivated millions of TV viewers in the ’60s and ’70s. Join award-winning filmmaker Ron Howard and audience-favorite actor, Clint Howard, as they frankly and fondly share their unusual family story of navigating and surviving life as sibling child actors.
“What was it like to grow up on TV?” Ron Howard has been asked this question throughout his adult life. in The Boys, he and his younger brother, Clint, examine their childhoods in detail for the first time.
For Ron, playing Opie on The Andy Griffith Show and Richie Cunningham on Happy Days offered fame, joy, and opportunity—but also invited stress and bullying.
For Clint, a fast start on such programs as Gentle Ben and Star Trek petered out in adolescence, with some tough consequences and lessons.
“This extraordinary book is not only a chronicle of Ron’s and Clint’s early careers and their wild adventures, but also a primer on so many topics—how an actor prepares, how to survive as a kid working in Hollywood, and how to be the best parents in the world! The Boys will surprise every reader with its humanity.” — Tom Hanks

One of my favorite character actors of all time is Bernard Fox. He played in all the big shows on television in the early days and continued acting until 1999. He steals every scene he is in....
We loved him as Dr. Bombay in Bewitched, Colonel Crittenden in Hogan's Heroes, and Malcom Merriweather on Andy Griffith.
