Susan Blanchard (née Jacobson; born March 8, 1928) is an American socialite and former lyricist and theatrical producer. She is the stepdaughter of Oscar Hammerstein II, the third wife of actor Henry Fonda, with whom she adopted a daughter, Amy Fishman (born 1953),[1] and the widow of actor Richard Widmark.
The younger child of Dorothy Kiaora Blanchard, a native of Australia, and Henry Jacobson, a New York businessman,[2] Susan Jacobson took her mother's surname after her parents' divorce and was known as Susan Blanchard thereafter. She studied at The Shipley School in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania.[3]
