RON HOWARD and his brother CLINT grew up in showbiz, so you know they have a ton of stories to tell. And they're telling them in a joint autobiography called "The Boys: A Memoir of Hollywood and Family". It comes out October 12th.
Ron says, quote, "Who grows up on a soundstage hanging out with Andy Griffith and Don Knotts, or with a trained bear? And what are the ways that particular childhood forever informed the choices I would make as a husband, father and filmmaker?
"We're excited to share the story of how our parents pulled this off . .
. raising two show-business kids who had no clue that their lives were out of the ordinary while rooting them in a loving, slightly off-beat family."
