Fernanda Luisa Gordon came into the world in 1967 as the daughter of renowned actress Rita Moreno and her husband, Leonard Gordon, a cardiologist. Following her early education, Fernanda pursued her studies at Tufts University, where she excelled and graduated with honors.

Having showcased her talent on stage alongside her mother, Fernanda embarked on her journey as a television actress during the 1990s. She received accolades from critics, with many envisioning her as the torchbearer of her Oscar-winning mother’s illustrious acting legacy. 

Fernanda Luisa Gordon: Marriage and Family Life

In matters of the heart, Fernanda tied the knot with David Tyler Fisher on October 12, 1996. At the time, the couple lived in Berkeley, California, where she worked as a performer and a freelance graphic designer. According to the New York Times, Fisher worked at a local consulting firm.

Fernanda and Fisher are proud parents to two children named Justin and Cameron Fisher. Her first child, Justin Fisher, was born in July 1998, while her second, Cameron Fisher, arrived two years later in July 2000.

Fernanda’s children have played an incredibly significant role in their grandmother’s life, just as she has been a constant presence in theirs. In a heartfelt interview in 2008, Moreno fondly recalled the day Justin entered the world. “Our grandchildren are the light of our lives,” she expressed.

“One of the most remarkable experiences we’ve had, if not the most remarkable, after the birth of our daughter was assisting in delivering our daughter’s baby. We were there with them [Fernanda and David] at the hospital. I even held one of Fernanda’s legs. It was awe-inspiring. It was the most profound and moving experience one could imagine. My baby was giving birth to a baby,” she added.

In 2023, Justin was honored to accompany Moreno to TIME’s Women of the Year Gala. During the event, PEOPLE asked Moreno about a time when she felt most beautiful, and the proud grandmother immediately gestured toward her grandson, stating, “I feel most beautiful when I gaze into the eyes of my grandboys, and he’s one of them.”

Fernanda Luisa Gordon Has an Incredible Relationship With Rita Moreno

Fernanda has always stood out for her exceptionally close bond with her mother, who happens to be a Hollywood legend. She has taken to Instagram multiple times to pay homage to her mom, expressing her deep admiration and affection.

In 2022, she shared a cherished throwback photo accompanied by heartfelt words:

“You have consistently been an incredible mother and have blossomed into a genuine friend 🌸 I am grateful for the multitude of beautiful experiences we’ve shared, my dear companion 💞.”

In another post, Fernanda delightedly shared a snapshot from her mother’s Playbill interview in 2021. “It truly touched my heart to read this ❣️❣️❣️,” she expressed. “I am incredibly #blessed to have a close bond with my #mom. Such a connection is a rare #gift at any age, but particularly at our stage of life 🙏.”

Their bond is truly inspiring because Fernanda and her mum are well advanced in age.

Fernanda has been a steadfast presence throughout her mother’s remarkable journey. She was by her side when the iconic EGOT winner received her well-deserved star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1995. Fernanda recently orchestrated a surprise party celebrating her mother’s 91st birthday in 2022.

Speaking to PEOPLE, she shared that the gathering genuinely took aback Moreno. “She believed she was just coming upstairs to see a new light fixture,” the thoughtful daughter revealed. “Little did she know that the space would be filled with friends.”

Fernanda explained that Moreno wanted to celebrate in her new home. So she decided to make that happen since her mother “couldn’t quite figure out how to make it happen.”

Fernanda and Moreno’s Work Together

In another chapter of the history book of their mother and daughter adventures, Fernanda had the privilege of working as her mother’s assistant on the 2023 film “80 for Brady.”

Excitedly sharing the news on Instagram, she wrote, “Don’t miss @80forbrady – it’s an incredible journey overflowing with #talent. 😂 After participating in the entire filming process, I was delighted to witness the fantastic outcome. And it’s pretty darn cool to see my name in the credits 😍.”

Beyond her relationship with Hollywood and her mother’s stellar career, Fernanda is a jewelry designer and the owner of Nandiz Designs. In 2021, she and Moreno hit the Oscars red carpet, where the designer wore one of her creations.
