Summary
"What was it like to grow up on TV?" Ron Howard has been asked this question throughout his adult life. Here, he and his younger brother, Clint, examine their childhoods in detail for the first time. For Ron, acting offered fame, joy, and opportunity--but also invited stress and bullying. For Clint, acting petered out in adolescence, with some tough consequences and lessons.With the perspective of time and success--Ron as a filmmaker, producer, and Hollywood A-lister, Clint as a busy character actor--the Howard brothers delve deep into an upbringing that seemed normal to them yet was anything but. This is the journey of a tight four-person family unit that held fast in an unforgiving business and of two brothers who survived "child-actor syndrome" to become fulfilled adults
