Ron Howard

Award-winning director Ronald William Howard is a venerated American television and film actor. He is known worldwide for his performances in American sitcoms, ‘The Andy Griffith Show’ and ‘Happy Days.’ When he was 18 months old, he made his first film appearance and has never failed to impress his audience since then. Coming from a theatrical family, he didn’t require much training to hone his acting skills as both his parents were actors. He made several appearances in popular movies, such as ‘The Courtship of Eddie’s Father,’ ‘American Graffiti,’ and ‘The Shootist.’ Following in his father’s footsteps, Ron decided to play an important role behind the camera as a director and producer. Some of his most astute skills as a director were seen in Hollywood films, such as ‘Apollo 13,’ ‘Cocoon,’ ‘A Beautiful Mind,’ and the controversial film ‘The Da Vinci Code.’ In 2013, he was inducted into the prestigious ‘Television Hall of Fame.’ He also has a star on the legendary ‘Hollywood Walk of Fame.’
