The son of actors and political activists Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden and the grandson of screen legend Henry Fonda, Troy Garity received his name in a unique way. His parents decided not to saddle him with either of his famous parents’ last names and instead, gave him the last name of his paternal grandmother. His first name, Troy, comes from a Vietnamese resistance leader.
