It’s a comprehensive picture of her legacy and her impact on American popular culture.\u003cbr\u003e Fonda began her career in the public eye as a model before taking up acting and bursting onto the scene as a stage actress in New York in the 1950s. She transitioned to film work in the 60s and skyrocketed to global prominence through her performance as the title character in \u003ci\u003eBarbarella\u003c\/i\u003e (1968). While she continued to headline in major motion pictures through the 70s and into the 80s, she became just as well known for the political activism she pursued in the late 60s and early 70s, most notably in the anti-war movement during the Vietnam era. \u003cbr\u003e In an effort to fund some of her activist efforts, she launched a second career in fitness. Fonda built a multi-million dollar aerobics exercise empire, starting with the release of \u003ci\u003eJane Fonda’s Workout Book\u003c\/i\u003e (1981), which was a national bestseller, and quickly followed by her popular exercise video, \u003ci\u003eJane Fonda’s Workout\u003c\/i\u003e, which was the top-selling VHS tape for a number of years. She went on to film more than 20 other workout videos, which collectively sold more than 17 million copies worldwide.\u003cbr\u003e She took a brief hiatus from acting throughout the 90s, during which time she founded several philanthropic organizations, including the Georgia Campaign for Adolescent Power and Potential, the Fonda Family Foundation, and the Jane Fonda Foundation. Her foundations make charitable donations to a number of causes including reproductive services, education, human services, and the environment.\u003cbr\u003e Fonda eventually returned to acting in the early 2000s, capturing a new generation of fans through her work in film and on popular television series including \u003ci\u003eThe Newsroom\u003c\/i\u003e and the contemporary Netflix hit series \u003ci\u003eGrace and Frankie\u003c\/i\u003e. She has continued to do activist work, particularly in opposing the Iraq War and supporting environmental causes. \u003cbr\u003e Now, for the first time, you can find Jane Fonda’s most inspirational, thought-provoking quotes in one place.","brand":"Agate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42857067610173,"sku":"9781572843028","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/0838\/9949\/files\/9781572843028_p0.jpg?v=1771570444","url":"https:\/\/www.tatteredcover.com\/products\/9781572843028","provider":"Tattered Cover","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
