What is Fonzie (Henry Winkler) Up to Today?

Ever wonder what Fonzie (Henry Winkler) from "Happy Days"is up to these days? He still acts, directs and produces, but he is also an advocate for those with learning disorders, and he supports various charities.

Today Henry Winkler is still acting. He also directs Hollywood productions and writes novels for children. You might have never guessed the Fonz has dyslexia and is a spokesman for the dyslexia foundation. He is also an avid photographer.

Dyslexia, also known as Developmental Reading Disorder, is caused by a person's brain's inability to process and recognize symbols, which is important in reading. That is because a child's first reading skills are based on word recognition. Many people with dyslexia have at least normal intelligence, and many have above average intelligence.

The producers of "Happy Days" never meant to make Fonzie into a main character on the show, because they believed viewers would look upon the character that once belonged to two different gangs, the Demons and the Falcons, as a hoodlum. Instead they just looked on Henry Winkler as cool, like Elvis or James Dean. As the show continued, Fonzie was always looked on as cool and different than anyone else, but people began to forget about his past and the fact he was a high school dropout. He came to be looked on as a pillar in the community, as he not owned his own business fixing cars but also was a part owner of Arnold's Drive-in, and even taught school (auto mechanics, of course). Henry Winkler as Fonzie even adopted a young orphan in the final season of the show.

One of the books Winkler wrote, with co-author Lin Oliver, "Hank," was written about the struggles of an elementary school student who deals with dyslexia. The novel was written about Winkler's own struggle with the reading disorder. (The website ReadingSuccessLab.com reports that 25 million Americans are functionally illiterate.)

"'Because I'm stupid and I'm lazy and I'm not living up to my potential' which is what I was told my whole life." Winker said in an interview reported in justonemorebook.com as he gave his reason for originally declining to write a book about his experiences dealing with dyslexia. "I said 'no'. And I said, not only that, but also there really is no discussion, I've got nothing to say, I don't know what to do."

He later changed his mind, however, and started writing novels to help children with the struggles he himself overcame. He has read his books in schools to encourage children. He reported about one boy with learning disorders that heard him in England and has since read the whole series Winkler wrote.

Besides his work as an advocate for those with learning disorders, Winkler has supported the Annual Cerebral Palsy Telethon, the Epilepsy Foundation, and the Toys for Tot annual campaign for Christmas, the Special Olympics, and other charities.

Winkler has also directed movies such as "Memories of Me," and "Cop and a Half." He has directed television shows such as "Hollywood Squares," "So Weird," "Mr. Sunshine," and Macguyer."

Henry Winkler has never stopped acting either and has been busy from the 1970's until now with television shows and movies such as "Henry Winkler Meets William Shakespeare," "A Christmas Carol," "Absolute Strangers," "One Christmas," "Click," "Holes," and "Little Nicky."

You may not see him on television every week, as you did when "Happy Days" was on the air, but Henry Winkler still keeps busy.
