Henry Fonda

Henry Jaynes Fonda (født 16. maj 1905, død 12. august 1982) var en oscar-belønnet amerikansk filmskuespiller.

Han stammede fra hollandske nybyggere, der havde grundlagt byen Fonda i delstaten New York. Da han var seks måneder gammel, flyttede familien til Omaha, hvor hans far grundlagde en trykkerivirksomhed.
