Ron Howard

Ron Howard: From Mayberry to the Moon... and Beyond, the first full-length biography of Ron Howard, takes an in-depth look at the Oklahoma boy who gained national fame as a child star, then grew up to be one of Hollywood's most admired directors. Although many show biz kids founder as they approach adulthood, Ron Howard had the advantage of brains, common sense, and two down-to-earth parents who kept him from having an inflated view of his own accomplishments. He also had a longstanding goal: to trade the glare of the spotlight for a quieter but equally creative life behind the camera. This biography tracks his career from 1960, when he debuted as six-year-old Opie Taylor on The Andy Griffith Show through 2002, when he accepted his Academy Award® as Best Director for A Beautiful Mind. Author Beverly Gray, an entertainment industry veteran, has spoken to teachers, friends, and professional colleagues from all phases of Howard's career. She has also combed the archives to gain further insight into this very private man whose accomplishments have brought pleasure to so many.

Ron Howard has been in show business almost from the day he learned to talk. He rose to fame as young Opie Taylor on The Andy Griffith Show and appeared in many movies and other T.V. shows while growing up.

Today, Howard has moved behind the camera to become a movie director and producer. With such Hollywood hits as Cocoon, Backdraft, Splash, and Apollo 13, and many other projects in the works, Howard has proved that life after child stardom can be just as successful. Barbara Kramer takes us behind the scenes and behind the camera to learn all about this well-loved child star and Hollywood director/producer.

  • Categories: Art

Available in Large Print, August 6th! Ron Howard is long overdue to have his filmography viewed through the lens of the auteur theory. Since his debut in the late-1970s, he has remained one of the most prolific and recognizable working filmmakers, and yet... his "directed by" titles have garnished a low amount of commentary by film academics. Even younger mainstream directors have earned more than one volume of academic attention - and yet Howard, who has continually developed himself, seems to only get treated with pop-culture-trivia "fun fact" regarding his acting career. There is no definitive visual aesthetic we can pinpoint to Howard's movies, which in of itself is part of his authorship. The Films of Ron Howard looks at the themes he has addressed repeatedly throughout four-plus decades of directing movies.
