Publisher's Synopsis
With the television hitsThe Odd Couple, Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley,andMork & Mindy, and movies likeThe Flamingo Kid, Beaches, Pretty Woman,andThe Princess Diariesunder his belt, Garry Marshall was among the most successful writers, directors, and producers in America for more than five decades. His work on the small and big screen delighted audiences for decades and has withstood the test of time.
InMy Happy Days in Hollywood, Marshall takes us on a journey from his stickball-playing days in the Bronx to his time at the helm of some of the most popular television series and movies of all time, sharing the joys and challenges of working with the Fonz and the young Julia Roberts, the "street performer" Robin Williams, and the young Anne Hathaway, among many others. This honest, vibrant, and often hilarious memoir reveals a man whose career was defined by his drive to make people laugh and whose personal philosophy-despite his tremendous achievements-was always that life is more important than show business.
