Lynda
Carter, who stars as the amazing Amazon queen in "The New Adventures of
Wonder Woman", on NBC, is the holder of the Miss World U.S.A. title for
1973 and has been called by many 'the most beautiful woman in the
world'. After touring for three years as a vocalist, Lynda paused
between engagements in her home town of Phoenix and, just to pass the
time, she entered her first beauty competition in Phoenix's
participation in the international Miss World Contest, In one short
month, she won the city pageant, the subsequent Miss Arizona contest and
finally the Miss World U.S.A. She was then sent to London where she
placed in the finals and was justifiably dubbed one of the most
beautiful girls in the world. Lynda is 5'8" in her stocking feet and
weighs a svelte 126 pounds. She has all the instincts of a natural
athlete and is superbly co-ordinated having studied with the London
School of Ballet for ten years. The youngest of three children, she was
born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona. Following her beauty triumph in
1973, Lynda moved to Los Angeles to study acting with Lieux Dessler and
later with Charles Conrad. |
