Anson Williams has done a lot of things, from acting to producing and directing, to starting a business that produces make-up. 

But it’s a single role that endears him to millions of TV viewers, especially in Milwaukee.

Williams is best known as Potsie Weber, the hapless and happy-go-lucky character he played for 10 years on the Milwaukee-set sitcom, Happy Days.

Williams' new memoir, Singing to a Bulldog is  based on lessons he learned from the unlikely mentor he had as a teenager.
