  • Mother of Vanessa Vadim with Roger Vadim
  • Attended Vassar College, Poughkeepsie, NY.
  • Is the subject of an erroneous urban legend.

When confronted, Fonda returned to the parlor wearing the gloves and the pearls, and nothing else.

  • Sister-in-law of Susan Brewer.
  • Born at 9:14 AM EST
  • Shortly after her divorce from Ted Turner, she announced she had become a born-again Christian. Speculations are that this may have played a part in their seperation, since Ted Turner has expressed highly critical opinions on religion in general.
  • The suicide of her socialite mother Frances Seymour Brokaw was kept from her as a teenager, and she was told that she'd died of heart failure. Household newspaper and magazine subscriptions were canceled, and the staff and student body of Fonda's high school were instructed not to discuss the incident. Fonda learned the truth months later while leafing through a movie magazine in art class.
