Lynda
Carter shot to international fame as star of the "Wonder Woman" series,
but she started her career as a singer, on radio, as a 5-year-old. She
had her first professional engagement when she was 15, went on the radio
when she was 17, and performed in Las Vegas at 19. Her versatility is
very evident in the CBS special, "Lynda Carter: Street Life," airing
Friday at 10PM. "I know some people say television variety specials are
dead because there is no new format," Lynda commented about her newest
variety show. "I don't agree. If you start with the music, you'll always
have some-thing new because there are so many different ways to present
it." And along with award-winning jazz guitarist/singer George Benson
and Tony Orlando as guest stars, the striking brunette intends to prove
her point Friday evening. |
