Fonda

Hollywood family name

Fonda is a surname, most associated with an American acting dynasty.

Henry Fonda was a leading man of Hollywood's golden age; his children Jane and Peter Fonda became prominent actors of the 1960s and beyond.

Jane Fonda's antiwar activism during Vietnam made her name politically charged—Hanoi Jane remains an epithet among some conservatives.
