"So like any good, closeted young lesbian of the Seventies, I developed a raging crush on Ron Howard from Happy Days."
Jane Lynch, from her memoir Happy Accidents

So, remember that Opie kid from The Andy Griffith Show? Well, Ronald William Howard (born March 1, 1954 in Duncan, Oklahoma) not only grew up to star in Happy Days, but while being one of the biggest sitcom stars in the world discovered that he liked directing. He's good at it, too, as his many awards show. And he was the narrator (and himself!) on Arrested Development.

The son of Rance Howard and older brother of Clint Howard, he is married to Cheryl Howard (née Alley), with whom he's had four children including Bryce Dallas Howard, who, as an actress and director, follows in his footsteps.
