Jane Fonda on Cover to Cover with Denny Smithson (KPFA, KPFB, KFCF)





Jess here, Jane Fonda there (to the left or above depending upon browser) and Jane Fonda on air. Drawing by Isaiah. I'm giving a heads up. KPFA today. 6:00 pm Eastern, 5:00 pm Central, 4:00 pm Mountain and 3:00 Pacific:



Cover to Cover with Denny Smithson
One of the most recognizable women of our time, America knows Jane Fonda as actress, activist, feminist, wife, and workout guru. In her extraordinary memoir, Fonda divides her life into three acts: her childhood, early films, and first marriage make up act one; her growing career in film, marriage to Ted Turner, and involvement in the Vietnam War belong to act two; and the third act belongs to the future, in which she hopes to "begin living consciously," and inspire others who can learn from her experiences. Fonda reveals intimate details and universal truths that she hopes "can provide a lens through which others can see their lives and how they can live them a little differently."


That's KPFA and you can listen online, for free, or you can listen over the airwaves in the Berkeley area on KPFA (94.1 FM) and probably on KPFB (89.3 FM) in Berkeley as well as
KFCF (88.1 FM) in Fresno.

****UPDATE by C.I. (Replacing Jess' update). There was a mistake with where Jess got his informantion. Jane Fonda will be on next Monday. Apparently the announcement was up on the main website and if you click here for the archived broadcast, you'll see Fonda listed as a today's guest (a mix up, it happens and it's not the end of the world). She's a guest next Monday. I didn't catch the show so I don't know who the guest was today but it wasn't Fonda..
Cover to Cover is a half hour broadcast that covers book. So you should check it out and if you did and didn't hear Fonda (six e-mails on that as I write), she's the guest next Monday. (We'll do a reminder then.)
