Henry Winkler
Henry Winkler’s father may have sold wood, but he only had eyes for Hollywood, as the cheeky comedian and actor once said. He began his career right after graduating from the Yale School of Drama as a stage actor.
His breakthrough arrived when he landed the role of Fonzie on “Happy Days.” Interestingly, he was informed he got the job on his birthday! While “The Fonz” remains timeless, younger audiences might recognize him better from his roles in “Arrested Development” or “Barry.”
