Non-Fiction Memoir
Once called a legend in his own time slot, Garry Marshall
has been among the most successful writers, directors, and
producers in America for more than five decades. As a comedy
writer who began his career during television’s last “golden
age” writing for Dick Van Dyke, he went on to produce some
of the most beloved sitcoms in television history, including
The Odd Couple, Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley,
and Mork & Mindy. Marshall’s enormous influence as a director has been felt in
film as well, in such classic motion pictures as The
Flamingo Kid, Beaches, Pretty Woman, and The Princess
Diaries. His work on the big screen has delighted
audiences for the last three decades and has withstood
the test of time. In My Happy Days in Hollywood, Marshall takes us on a
journey from his stickball-playing days in the Bronx to his
time at the helm of some of the most popular television
series and movies of all time, sharing the joys and
challenges of working with the Fonz and the young Julia
Roberts, the “street performer” Robin Williams, and the
young Anne Hathaway, among many others. This honest,
vibrant, and often hilarious memoir reveals a man whose
career has been defined by his drive to make people laugh
and whose personal philosophy—despite his tremendous
achievements—has always been that life is more important
than show business.
