\nFrom actor\, autho r\, comedian\, producer\, and director Henry Winkler\, a deeply thoughtful memoir of the lifelong effects of stardom and the struggle to become whol e. Henry Winkler\, launched into prominence as "The Fonz" in the beloved H appy Days\, has transcended the role that made him who he is. Brilliant\, funny\, and widely-regarded as the nicest man in Hollywood (though he woul d be the first to tell you that it's simply not the case\, he's really jus t grateful to be here)\, Henry shares in this achingly vulnerable memoir t he disheartening truth of his childhood\, the difficulties of a life with severe dyslexia\, the pressures of a role that takes on a life of its own\ , and the path forward once your wildest dream seems behind you. Since the glorious era of Happy Days fame\, Henry has endeared himself to a new gen eration with roles in such adored shows as Arrested Development\, Parks an d Recreation\, and Barry\, where he's been revealed as an actor with immen se depth and pathos\, a departure from the period of his life when he was so distinctly typecast as The Fonz\, he could hardly find work. Filled wit h profound heart\, charm\, and self-deprecating humor\, Being Henry is a m emoir about so much more than a life in Hollywood and the curse of stardom . It is a meaningful testament to the power of sharing truth and kindness and of finding fulfillment within yourself.
