Personal Fact of Henry Fonda | |
Henry Jaynes Fonda was a well-known American film and stage actor born in early twentieth century. Initially, he was a short shy boy keenly interested in boys scouting; but avoided girls as much as he could. Towards the end of his school years he suddenly grew tall and handsome. His aim in life was to become journalist; but when he was twenty years old, his mother’s friend Dorothy Brando, who also happened to be Marlon Brando’s mother, was staging a play called You and I at Omaha Community Hall, Nebraska. On her insistence, Fonda tried for the lead role and immediately fell in love with acting. He not only turned out to be good actor, but began to learn everything from stage production to set construction. However, it was not until he played the lead role in Merton of the Movies that he actually decided to take up acting as a career option. He first went to New York to try his luck at the Broadway and then shifted to Hollywood. Nicknamed One Take Fonda he soon became one of America’s greatest stars and in a career that lasted for almost five decades he acted in 106 films, TV shows and shorts. |
