Jesse Thorn interviewed the great Henry Winkler on The Sound of Young America.
Television legend Henry Winkler is best known for his role as Arthur "The Fonz" Fonzarelli on Happy Days, but he's continued to add acting, producing, and directing credits to his name over the past thirty years. He's also co-written a series of children's books about a boy with learning disabilities, inspired by his own challenges with dyslexia.
You can see him currently as Dr. Sy Mittleman on the new season of the [adult swim] show Childrens' Hospital, airing Sundays at 10:30pm, and on USA's Royal Pains.
Another reason to like Henry Winkler: When my wife was in high school she worked as a parking valet for Chuck's Parking. Winkler hired them to valet for a party he threw, and when it was over, he gave each of the valets a generous tip and invited them in for snacks. She said he was very nice.
