(22 Jul 2021) 'WONDER WOMAN' LYNDA CARTER AT 70
Wonder Woman turns 70 on Saturday (24 JULY 2021) as actor Lynda Carter celebrates a landmark birthday.
Arizona-born Carter began her career as a singer before winning a local beauty contest, leading her to become Miss USA 1972.
Her increased profile saw her cast as Diana Prince - aka Wonder Woman - in ABC's hit superhero show.
"Wonder Woman," which ran for three seasons between 1975 - 1979, made Carter a worldwide star thanks to her charismatic screen presence and her iconic red and gold outfit.
After the show ended, Carter appeared in a number of musical TV specials, as well as films including "Super Troopers" (2001), "Sky High" and "Dukes of Hazzard" (both 2005).
Most recently, she had a cameo in the mid-credits sequence of "Wonder Woman 1984" - actor Gal Gadot's second solo outing as Diana Prince.
Carter has been married twice - to talent agent Ron Samuels (1977 - 1982) and lawyer Robert A. Altman (1984 - his death in 2021). She has two children by Altman.
