He will be forever known as Potsie from Happy Days, but his memories of that much-loved TV series are all positive, especially his relationship with the show’s creator Garry Marshall. Having begun in the theater and turned director (with dozens of TV shows to his credit) he is now piloting his wife’s new play Crazy Mama: A True Story of Love and Madness at the celebrated Rubicon Theatre in Ventura, California. It’s based on her own experience living with a mother who suffered from severe mental illness. Linda Purl plays 16 roles in this provocative one-woman show.
