Answer 1

Howard has had starring roles in the TV series "Adam's Rib" and "The Manhunter" followed. He became firmly established in the public's mind as 'Coach Reeves' on MTM's prestigious "The White Shadow," a series which he co-created, based on his own experiences as the only white player on his high school basketball team. In the following years, he co-starred on the series "It's Not Easy," "the Colbys" and "Dynasty." Among Howard's other series, mini-series and TV movie credits are "Curb Your Enthusiasm" (recurring), and "The Practice," (recurring) "Arli$$," "The West Wing." Miniseries: "Perfect Murder, Perfect Town," 'The Thorn Birds," "Rage of Angels," "Op Center," "Mastergate," "He's Not Your Son", "The Country Girls," "Murder in New Hampshire" and Memories of Midnight"

In 1968, two years into the three-year program at the Yale School of Drama, he accepted a small role on Broadwin in Neil Simon's "Promises,Promises." He then originated the role of Thomas Jefferson in the Tony-Award winning Musical "1776," directed by Peter Hunt, receiving a Theatre World Award. Howard later won a Tony for his work as a young gym coach at a Catholic boys school in "Child's Play," and has starred on Broadway in "Seesaw," "The Norman Conquests," "1600 Pennsylvania Avenue" and the national tour of "Equus."

Howard won an Emmy for the on-camera narration of "Facts For Boys: The Body Human". His voice can be heard on more than 30 best-selling books on tape.

Howard resides in Los Angeles, California with his wife, retired stunt-woman Linda Howard and their dog, Shadow.

Answer 2

Ken Howard played Jordan's Father in the first few seasons of Crossing Jordan. He also played in a series years ago called WhiteShadow about basketball. He must be past 50 and I don't think he is related to Ron Howard.

Answer 3

He was a high school basketball coach in The White Shadow a late 70's TV show. More recently, he played Jordan's father (with a terrible Bahs-ston accent, imo) on the show "Crossing Jordan".

I don't believe there's any relation with Ron Howard.

Answer 4

He may be related, I can't remember, but he is best known for his role as the coach in "White Shadow" a 70's series about a high school basketball team. He also played basketball and 6 foot 7 at that time was a giant.
