Title: Ron Howard: From Mayberry to the Moon...and Beyond Author: Beverly Gray Narrator: Donna Postel Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 26 minutes Release date: February 2, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 2 Genres: Arts & Entertainment Publisher's Summary: 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.
