(B&W photographs) SIGNED by the author on the title page (with a little heart, aww). Fonda "divides her 'life so far' into three acts." Act One is about her childhood, her early film career, and her first marriage, to film director Roger Vadim. Act Two deals with her political activism, "highlights her struggle to live consciously and authentically while remaining in the public eye," and discusses her marriages to Tom Hayden and Ted Turner. In Act Three, she "begins the work of a lifetime -- living consciously in a way that might inspire others who can learn from her experiences." Signed by Author .
Synopsis
JANE FONDA was born in New York City in 1937. She attended the Emma Willard School in Troy, New York, and Vassar College. Fonda later studied with renowned acting coach Lee Strasberg and became a member of the Actors Studio in New York. Her subsequent work on stage and screen earned numerous honors, including two Best Actress Academy Awards– Klute (1971) and Coming Home (1978)–and an Emmy Award for her performance in The Dollmaker. Fonda was also a successful producer, whose credits include The China Syndrome , Nine to Five , O n Golden Pond, and The Morning After . Fonda revolutionized the fitness industry with the release of Jane Fonda’s Workout in 1982, which remains the top-grossing home video of all time. She then produced twenty-three home exercise videos, thirteen audio recordings, and five bestselling books. She now focuses her time on activism and philanthropy, in such areas as adolescent reproductive health, pregnancy prevention, school reform through arts, and building resiliency in girls and boys by addressing destructive gender stereotypes. In 1995 she founded the Georgia Campaign for Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention (G-CAPP), which she chairs. In 2002, she opened the Jane Fonda Center for Adolescent Reproductive Health at Emory University's School of Medicine. She lives in Atlanta. From the Hardcover edition.
