Ron Howard was born in Duncan, Oklahoma on March 1, 1954, to parents with theatrical careers. "I've always been a little shy, tended to keep to myself, was never sure what other people think of me, not real easy to get to know," Howard told Todd McCarthy in Film Comment. Despite living a life in the public eye, Howard has garnered a reputation as a "nice guy" and describes himself as reserved. He became well-known over the years for his role as freckle-faced Opie Taylor on The Andy Griffith Show, as redheaded Richie Cunningham on Happy Days, and later as a respected director of films, including Splash, Parenthood, the acclaimed Apollo 13, and Ransom. He appeared in his first movie at the age of 18 months, and remained in the entertainment industry throughout his life. Ron Howard doesn't remember a time in his life when people didn't ask him for autographs.
