Moshonov was born in Ramla, Israel, to a Bulgarian Jewish family that immigrated to Israel from Sofia, Bulgaria. His father, Moshe, who studied law in Sofia, sold textiles at the Ramla market. Moshonov grew up in Ramla, Israel. He did his military service in an Israel Defense Forces entertainment troupe.
After studying drama at Tel Aviv University, he joined the Haifa Theater, remaining with the group for five years. In 1977 he made his first film appearance in Masa Alunkot ("Journey of Stretchers") alongside Gidi Gov.
In 1978–98, Moshonov starred along with Shlomo Bar-Aba, Dov Glickman, Gidi Gov and many more in the Israeli satirical TV show Zehu Ze!, first on Israeli Educational Television and then Channel 2.
