Jane Fonda accepted the John Steinbeck Award at San Francisco's Herbst Theatre Wednesday night at an event hosted by the Commonwealth Club's Climate One project.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Tearful from the memory of her father, Jane Fonda embraced the John Steinbeck Award that she had just received and thanked a standing audience in San Francisco's Herbst Theatre on Wednesday.

Fonda accepted the award after talking an hour on stage with podcaster Greg Dalton, at an event hosted by The Commonwealth Club's Climate One project. "She didn't treat me like a celebrity. She saw me," Fonda said."I realized there's a lot of these people in the world that are totally different than the people that I've grown up with. I wanted to be like them. They were all women. It was a profound, soul-altering experience for me."
