The Truth About Peter Fonda (1940 - 2019) What Happened To Peter Fonda
Peter Fonda wasn't just an actor. He was a rebel yell on celluloid, a two-wheeled avatar of the 1960s counterculture, and a chronicler of America's underbelly, both beautiful and brutal. His face, etched with both vulnerability and defiance, mirrored the turbulent times he lived through, while his eyes, like bottomless pools of blue, reflected the searing honesty that burned throughout his career. In a single image, astride his chopper in Easy Rider, he became a symbol of a generation searching for freedom, their journey echoing across the open highway long after the credits rolled.

The reputation of Peter Fonda as an actor could never match that of his father, Henry, or his older sister, Jane. Even taken on its own terms, his career was alarmingly erratic. Its peak was probably reached when Fonda played Captain America in the 1969 road movie Easy Rider, although he took everyone by surprise when, after years in the cinematic wilderness, he gave the best performance of his career (and gained an Oscar nomination) for Ulee’s Gold (1997).

Like his sister, Peter had a troubled childhood. In his 1998 memoir, Don’t Tell Dad, he chronicled his difficult, distant relationship with his famous father. Describing Henry’s role in John Ford’s Fort Apache (1948) as “an unsmiling, bitter, strict hard-ass,” he added, “When people ask me what it was like growing up as Henry Fonda’s son, I ask them if they have seen Fort Apache.”
