Henry Winkler, best known as "The Fonz" from the long-loved television show, Happy Days, lives by two words:
Tenacity, which gets you where you need to go in life and gratitude, which allows you to enjoy the journey and not be angry along the way.
Henry grew up in an extremely strict household where he was called the equivalent of "dumb dog" in German. Henry suffers from dyslexia, but the condition was not understood at that time in his life.
Henry Winkler joins host Lisa Davis to share insights from his journey with an invisible disability, as well as provide information on his Hank Zipzer Book series.
