Henry Franklin Winkler, (born October 30, 1945)〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QJXJ-Y7QK )〕 is an American actor, director, comedian, producer and author. Winkler is best known for his role as Arthur Fonzarelli in the 1970s American sitcom ''Happy Days.'' "The Fonz," or "Fonzie," a leather-clad greaser and auto mechanic, started out as a minor character at the show's beginning, but had achieved top billing by the time the show ended. He currently stars as Sy Mittleman on Adult Swim's ''Childrens Hospital'' and Eddie R. Lawson on USA Networks's ''Royal Pains.'' == Early life == Winkler was born in the West Side of Manhattan, New York City, New York, the son of Ilse Anna Marie Winkler (née Hadra) and Harry Irving Winkler, a lumber company president. Winkler's Jewish parents emigrated from Berlin, Germany to the United States in 1939, "on the eve" of World War II. Winkler said that his parents came to the United States for a six-month business trip but that they knew they were never going back.〔 His father smuggled the only assets the family had left, family jewels, in a box of chocolate that he carried under his arm.〔 Although they did not keep kosher, Winkler was raised in the traditions of Conservative Judaism, but said that he was not religious as an adult. The family attended Congregation Habonim, where his mother, a homemaker, ran the Judaica shop. His parents were founding members of the temple.〔 Winkler has a sister, Beatrice. Winkler said he was very anxious as a child because of his undiagnosed dyslexia. He said he was considered to be "slow, stupid, not living up to my potential." He said his father spoke 11 languages and could do math in his head and did not understand Winkler's problems at school, where Winkler would celebrate a C. Winkler has said that his relationship with his parents (now deceased) was strained, due at least partially to their attitude towards his undiagnosed dyslexia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Henry Winkler, Actor, Producer, Author )〕 He stated his father referred to him as "dumb dog" and often punished him for his difficulties in school.〔 Winkler attended P.S. 87 on W. 78th Street and then graduated from McBurney School in 1963, both of which were located in Manhattan's Upper West Side neighborhood.〔 Winkler said he did not graduate with his class because of his learning disability and problems with a geometry class, which he finally passed after attending summer school.〔 In 1967, Winkler received his B.A. degree from Emerson College. At Emerson, he was a member of the Alpha Pi Theta Fraternity. In 1970, Winkler earned an M.F.A. degree from the Yale School of Drama. In 1978, Emerson awarded Winkler an honorary D.H.L. degree. Winkler has also received an honorary D.H.L. degree from Austin College. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Henry Winkler」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
