Ron Howard: Opie earned more than Sandy Koufax?!?

We’re walking and talking with legendary Hollywood director, Ron Howard. He strolls through topics including how a Sandy Koufax salary holdout in the 60s provided a shocking realization that he was out-earning the ace as a childhood actor, plus why Howard chooses New York over L.A. and why he stays on his feet while working on set - logging an average of 20,000 steps per day.

Ron Howard is so well rounded as an individual, a husband, a father, an actor a director etc., etc., etc.

[cathylocke]

More interviews with Ron. Absolutely love them!

[tigergreg]

He's so down to earth and a fun guy to listen too. He still has that innocence about him as Opey had
I also think that Andy Griffith played a big part in his character as a person.

Truly one of the greatest child actors of all time.

Every time I hear this man talk, he says something of value. Who would have known little Richie Cunningham would have grown up to be so wise?
His parents have a lot to do with that. They were there for him and made sure he was around people that respected children. Yule Brenner was thinkin like a master dad! That's a happy thought.

As an Extra in the movie; "God's and General's, " as a Civil War Re-enactor, I learned a lot about the ins and outs of movie making. Spent 20 days on the set near Stanton and saw so much regarding lighting, props, preparation and directing. It was an eventful time of learning and experiencing movie making. Great interview Graham!

To be a massive star actor and legendary director, what a career. Andy Griffith, Happy Days and Arrested Development are still favorites

They raised their kids away from Hollywood, on purpose. But his daughter became a Hollywood heavy hitter in her own right. And his baby brother Clint? Have so much respect and admiration for this man and his family. Kinda feels part of my family.

Many of Ron Howards films were my favorites, they were real. Apollo 13 Backdraft and many more

Before Happy Days Ron was in an excellent tv show. Forgot the namr of it but it was my fav. show. He doesn't talk about it much. Loved Happy Days. He was very funny in it.
