Preface The worlds of theatre, film, and television hold an undeniable appeal, and the individuals whose careers are devoted to these fields are subjects of great interest. The people both behind the scenes and in front of the lights and cameras—writers, directors, producers, performers, and others—all have a significant impact on our lives, for they enlighten us as they entertain. Contemporary Theatre, Film, and Television Provides Broad Coverage in the Entertainment Field
Contemporary Theatre, Film, and Television (CTFT) is a comprehensive biographical series designed to meet the need for information on theatre, film, and television personalities. Prior to the publication of CTFT, biographical sources covering entertainment figures were generally limited in scope; for more than seventy years Who's Who in the Theatre (WWT), for example, provided reliable information on theatre people. But today few performers, directors, writers, producers, or technicians limit themselves to the stage. And there are also growing numbers of people who, though not active in the theatre, make significant contributions to other entertainment media. With its broad scope, encompassing not only stage notables but also film and/ or television figures, CTFT is a more comprehensive and, the editors believe, more useful reference tool. Its clear entry format, allowing for the quick location of specific facts, combines with hundreds of photographs to further distinguish C77*Tfrom other biographical sources on entertainment personalities. Moreover, since CTFT is a series, new volumes can cover the steady influx of fresh talent into the entertainment media. The majority of the entries in each CTFT volume present information on people new to the series, but CTFT also includes updated versions of previously published CTFT sketches on especially active figures as well as complete revisions of WWT entries. The CTFT cumulative index makes all listings easily accessible. Scope CTFT is a biographical series covering not only performers, directors, writers, and producers but also designers, managers, choreographers, technicians, composers, executives, dancers, and critics from the United States and Great Britain. With nearly 700 entries in CTFT, Volume 8, the series now provides biographies for more than 5,200 people involved in all aspects of the theatre, film, and television industries. Primary emphasis is given to people who are currently active. CTFT includes major, established figures whose positions in entertainment history are assured, such as award-winning playwright Wendy Wasserstein, film producer Samuel Goldwyn, Jr., actors Gerard Depardieu and Harrison Ford, documentary filmmaker Marcel Ophuls, and the animators William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. Individuals who are beginning to garner acclaim for their work are represented in CTFT as well, including comedienne and television superstar Roseanne Barr; director Tim Luscombe who received the 1989 Olivier Award as Best Newcomer for his work on the London stage; Winona Ryder, the star of such recent films as Beetlejuice, Heathers, and Great Balls of Fire; Craig Safan, composer for the television series Cheers and the film Stand and Deliver among other works; and Anton Furst, 1990 Academy Award-winner for his production design on the film Batman. Selected sketches also record the achievements of theatre, film, and television personalities who have recently passed away but whose work commands lasting interest. Among such notables with listings in this volume are Laurence Olivier, Irving Berlin, Bette Davis, Barbara Stanwyck, Lucille Ball, Mel Blanc, Gilda Radner, and theatre director and executive Nikos Psacharopoulos. With its broad coverage and detailed entries, CTFT is designed to assist a variety of users—a student preparing for a class, a teacher drawing up an assignment, a researcher seeking a specific fact, a librarian searching for the answer to a question, or a general reader looking for information about a favorite personality.

Compilation Methods Every effort is made to secure information directly from biographees. The editors consult industry directories, biographical dictionaries, published interviews, feature stories, and film, television, and theatre reviews to identify people not previously covered in CTFT. Questionnaires are mailed to prospective listees or, when addresses are unavailable, to their agents, and sketches are compiled from the information they supply. The editors also select major figures included in WWTwhose entries require updating and send them copies of their previously published entries for revision. CTFT sketches are then prepared from the new information submitted by these well-known personalities or their agents. Among the notable figures whose WWT, seventeenth edition, entries have been completely revised for this volume of CTFT are actresses Pauline Collins and Gloria Foster, playwright James Goldman, and stage producer and director Woodie King, Jr. If people of special interest to CTFT users are deceased or fail to reply to requests for information, materials are gathered from reliable secondary sources. Sketches prepared solely through research are clearly marked with an asterisk (*) at the end of the entries. Revised Entries Each volume of CTFTis devoted primarily to people currently active in theatre, film, and television who are not already covered in the series or in WWT. However, to ensure CTFT's timeliness and comprehensiveness, in addition to the updates of WWT sketches mentioned above, the editors also select CTFT listees from earlier volumes who have been active enough to require revision of their previous biographies. Such individuals will merit revised entries as often as there is substantial new information to provide. For example, the update of Woody Allen's entry from CTFT, Volume 1, included in this volume adds his most recent film work and awards; moreover, research has brought to light information about earlier stage and television work that was not included in his previous sketch. Similarly, Volume 8 provides revised entries containing significant new information on Richard Attenborough, Carol Burnett, Dick Cavett, Lee Grant, Harold Prince, Meryl Streep, and Peter Ustinov. Format CTFT entries, modeled after those in Gale Research's highly regarded Contemporary Authors series, are written in a clear, readable style with few abbreviations and no limits set on length. So that a reader needing specific information can quickly focus on the pertinent portion of an entry, typical CrFTlistings are clearly divided into the following sections: Entry heading—Cites the form of the name by which the listee is best known followed by birth and death dates, when available. Personal—Provides the biographee's full or original name if different from the entry heading, date and place of birth, family data, and information about the listee's education (including professional training), politics, religion, and military service. Vocation—Highlights the individual's primary fields of activity in the entertainment industry. Career—Presents a comprehensive listing of principal credits or engagements. The career section lists theatrical debuts (including Broadway and London debuts), principal stage appearances, and major tours; film debuts and principal films; television debuts and television appearances; and plays, films, and television shows directed and produced. Related career items, such as professorships and lecturing, are also included as well as non-entertainment career activities. Writings—Lists published and unpublished plays, screenplays, and scripts along with production information. Published books and articles, often with bibliographical data, are also listed. Recordings—Cites album and single song releases with recording labels, when available. Awards—Notes theatre, film, and television awards and nominations as well as writing awards, military and civic awards, and fellowships and honorary degrees received. Member—Highlights professional, union, civic, and other association memberships, including official posts held. Sidelights—Cites favorite roles, recreational activities, and hobbies. Frequently this section includes portions of agent-prepared biographies or personal statements from the listee. In-depth

sidelights providing an overview of an individual's career achievements are compiled on selected personalities of special interest. Other Sources—Indicates periodicals, serials, or books where interviews, criticism, and additional types of information can be found. Not intended as full bibliographies, these citations are provided on brief entries, sketches with sidelights, and a small number of other entries. Addresses—Notes home, office, and agent addresses, when available. (In those instances where an individual prefers to withhold his or her home address from publication, the editors make every attempt to include at least one other address in the entry.) Enlivening the text in many instances are large, clear photographs. Often the work of theatrical photographers, these pictures are supplied by the biographees to complement their sketches. This volume, for example, contains nearly 200 such portraits received from various individuals profiled in the following pages. Brief Entries
CTFTusers have indicated that having some information, however brief, on individuals not yet in the series would be preferable to waiting until full-length sketches can be prepared as outlined above under "Compilation Methods." Therefore, CTFT includes abbreviated listings on notables who presently do not have sketches in CTFT. These short profiles, identified by the heading "Brief Entry," highlight the person's career in capsule form. Brief entries are not intended to replace sketches. Instead, they are designed to increase CTFT's comprehensiveness and thus better serve CTFT users by providing pertinent and timely information about well-known people in the entertainment industry, many of whom will be the subjects of full sketches in forthcoming volumes. Cumulative Index
To facilitate locating sketches on the thousands of notables profiled in CTFT, each volume contains a cumulative index to the entire series. As an added feature, this index also includes references to all seventeen editions of WWTand to the four-volume compilation Who Was Who in the Theatre (Gale, 1978). Thus by consulting only one source—the CTFT cumulative index—users have easy access to the tens of thousands of biographical sketches in CTFT, WWT, and Who Was Who in the Theatre. Suggestions Are Welcome
If readers would like to suggest people to be covered in future CTFT volumes, they are encouraged to send these names (along with addresses, if possible) to the editors. Other suggestions and comments are also most welcome and should be addressed to: The Editors, Contemporary Theatre, Film, and Television, Gale Research Inc., 835 Penobscot Bldg., Detroit, MI 48226-4094.

FOAN, John See BAVA, Mario
FONDA, Bridget BRIEF ENTRY: Born c. 1964; daughter of Peter (an actor, director, producer, and writer) and Susan Fonda. A member of one of America's most celebrated acting families, Bridget Fonda has in a brief period carved out a distinct career on her own merits, most notably in the film Scandal (Miramax, 1989), for which she captured critical accolades as Mandy Rice-Davies, a British showgirl involved in the 1963 sex scandal that toppled England's conservative government. Although she grew up in a show business environment, Fonda is reluctant to credit her family background with influencing her career decision. As she noted in an interview with US, ' 'It may have affected me slightly, but only because I grew up around creative people.'' Instead of turning to her family for an entree into the film industry, she studied at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute in New York City for four years and also attended acting classes taught by Harold Gruskin and David Mamet. Her first professional credits include the plays Confession at the Warren Robertson Workshop and Pastels at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute. For her film debut, Fonda appeared in the erotic and sensational "Tristan and Isolde" segment of the 1988 feature Aria and, later that year, she displayed her comedic talents in the romantic comedy You Can't Hurry Love. Both films received mixed reviews, but with the release of Scandal, Fonda was acknowledged as a new and genuine talent, receiving a Golden Globe nomination for her performance. Her subsequent appearances have included roles in
