Anson Williams: The Iconic Actor/Director Joins Us to Discuss the 50th Anniversary of Happy Days and More! (S4 Ep.#3)
Anson Williams is a legendary talent, most recognized for his portrayal of Potsie Weber on the beloved classic TV series "Happy Days." This iconic actor, director, philanthropist, politician, and entrepreneur joins us to discuss the upcoming celebration of the landmark show’s 50th anniversary!
Anson and I delve into the wonderful aspects surrounding this Garry Marshall-created television masterpiece. We explore how Marshall helped everyone keep their egos in check when it seemed they had become the biggest, most popular phenomenon on the planet.
He asserts that Garry’s guidance and innovative thinking, such as the Happy Days Softball team, played a crucial role in creating lifelong friendships that persist to this day. The ironclad camaraderie forged helped them all secure a permanent place in American Television history.
We also touch upon Anson’s significant creative contributions as a producer and director of various TV series and stage shows, including the highly acclaimed one he’s currently involved in. "Crazy Mama" stars General Hospital’s Carolyn Henesey and is set to debut in 2024!
Be sure to check out the production of "Crazy Mama" when it makes its debut in New York, and hopefully at an off-Broadway venue. Follow Anson at https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q=anson%20williams.
