In 2014, she was the recipient of the American Film Institute AFI Life Achievement Award. Fonda made her Broadway debut in the 1960 play ''There Was a Little Girl'', for which she received the first of two Tony Award nominations, and made her screen debut later the same year in ''Tall Story''. She rose to fame in 1960s films such as ''Period of Adjustment'' (1962), ''Sunday in New York'' (1963), ''Cat Ballou'' (1965), ''Barefoot in the Park'' (1967) and ''Barbarella'' (1968). Her first husband was ''Barbarella'' director Roger Vadim. A seven-time Academy Award nominee, she received her first nomination for ''They Shoot Horses, Don't They'' (1969) and went on to win two Best Actress Oscars in the 1970s for ''Klute'' (1971) and ''Coming Home'' (1978). Her other nominations were for ''Julia'' (1977), ''The China Syndrome'' (1979), ''On Golden Pond'' (1981) and ''The Morning After'' (1986). Her other major competitive awards include an Emmy Award for the 1984 TV film ''The Dollmaker'', two BAFTA Awards for ''Julia'' and ''The China Syndrome'' and four Golden Globe Awards. In 1982, she released her first exercise video, ''Jane Fonda's Workout'', which became the highest-selling video of the time. It would be the first of 22 workout videos released by her over the next 13 years which would collectively sell over 17 million copies. Divorced from second husband Tom Hayden, she married billionaire media mogul Ted Turner in 1991 and retired from acting. Divorced from Turner in 2001, she returned to acting with her first film in 15 years with the 2005 comedy ''Monster in Law''. Subsequent films have included ''Georgia Rule'' (2007), ''The Butler'' (2013) and ''This Is Where I Leave You'' (2014). In 2009, she returned to Broadway after a 45-year absence, in the play ''33 Variations'', which earned her a Tony Award nomination, while her recurring role in the HBO drama series ''The Newsroom'' (2012-2014), has earned her two Emmy Award nominations. She also released another five exercise videos between 2010 and 2012. Fonda was a visible political activist in the counterculture era during the Vietnam War and has been more recently involved in advocacy for women. She was famously and controversially photographed sitting on an anti-aircraft battery on a 1972 visit to Hanoi. She has also protested the Iraq War and violence against women, and describes herself as a feminist. In 2005, she, Robin Morgan and Gloria Steinem co-founded the Women's Media Center, an organization that works to amplify the voices of women in the media through advocacy, media and leadership training, and the creation of original content. Fonda currently serves on the board of the organization. She published an autobiography in 2005. In 2011, she published a second memoir, ''Prime Time''. ==Background== Jayne Seymour Fonda was born on December 21, 1937, in New York City, the daughter of actor Henry Fonda and the Canadian-born socialite Frances Ford Brokaw, née Seymour. According to her father, their surname came from an Italian ancestor who immigrated to the Netherlands in the 1500s.〔Henry Fonda, ''My Life'', New York: Dutton, 1981.〕 There, they intermarried and began to use Dutch given names, with Jane's first Fonda ancestor reaching New York in 1650.〔The Fonda immigrant ancestor came from Eagum (also spelled Augum or Agum), a village in Friesland, a northern province of the Netherlands. Jellis Douwe Fonda (1614–1659), a Dutch immigrant from Friesland (or Vrysland), immigrated and first went to Beverwyck (now Albany) in 1650; he was the founder of the City of Fonda, New York (see (【引用サイトリンク】title=Descendants of Jellis Douw Fonda (1614–1659) ) and 〕〔''Jane: an intimate biography of Jane Fonda'', Thomas Kiernan, Putnam, 1973, p. 12〕〔''Citizen Jane: The Turbulent Life of Jane Fonda'', Christopher P. Andersen, Dell Pub., 1991, p. 14〕 She also has English, Scottish, and French ancestry. She was named for the third wife of Henry VIII, Jane Seymour, to whom she is distantly related on her mother's side.〔Fonda, 2005, p. 41.〕 She has a brother, Peter, an actor, and a maternal half-sister, Frances de Villers Brokaw (aka "Pan"), whose daughter is Pilar Corrias, owner of Pilar Corrias Gallery in London. On April 14, 1950, when Fonda was twelve, her mother committed suicide while under treatment at a psychiatric hospital.〔Fonda, 2005, pp. 16–17.〕 Later that year, Fonda's father married socialite Susan Blanchard (born 1928), just nine years his daughter's senior; this marriage ended in divorce. At 15 Fonda taught dance at Fire Island Pines, New York. She attended Greenwich Academy in Greenwich, Connecticut. Fonda attended the Emma Willard School in Troy, New York, and Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, where she was an undistinguished student. Before starting her acting career, Fonda was a model, gracing the cover of ''Vogue'' twice. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jane Fonda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
