About this title: With a career spanning roles in the camp 1960s science fiction movie classic, BARBARELLA, the brooding, seamy '70s thriller KLUTE, and a much-remembered cameo appearance in the Vietnam War, actor, activist, and doyenne of the '80s workout craze Jane Fonda has amassed more than enough material in her 67 years for a riveting autobiography. In MY LIFE SO FAR, Fonda's emotionally disturbed childhood (she was 12 years old when her mother committed suicide) and cold, forbidding father, the actor Henry Fonda, lay the foundations for a lifetime of insecurity.

"I read this because I just finished "Call Me Ted" by Ted Turner and I wanted to see what she said about him. It's very informative. I am a peacenic so I already agreed with her on ending the Viet Name War. She made a few errors and the media always takes to extreme. She not confident and she always wanted to please her Dad which I knew. She's much more talented then she thinks. I'll probably rewatch and watch her movies after reading this."
"I've admired Fonda's strength, choice of movies, and her dad's movies. It was interesting reading about her relationship with Katharine Hepburn during the filming of On Golden Pond. It's interesting how someone so accomplished was so insecure and haunted by personal demons as well as by the suicide of her mother. Interesting summer read."
"What a woman...describes her early life with famous parents and the ongoing difficulties with her father and how this is resolved.. her mother had either depression or manic depression...reveals her marriages to Vadim and others and her growth as a feminist throughout..her Vietnam war years etc..and how she is at peace with herself now..blah blah...I thought it was an honest and revealing autobiography..makes you feel proud to be a woman"
"Jane Fonda's story was very interesting, especially since I knew nothing about her prior to being lent this book. While she's clearly had a lot of therapy and lapses into psychobabble often, there was still a lot of good material here. I was particularly fascinated by the account of Jane's childhood, which was shocking in its emotional isolation. A good read, and a great history of Hollywood and America in a particular time."
