We don’t need Wonder Woman’s golden lasso of truth for us to admit how pleased we are to wish Lynda Carter a very happy birthday. The truth comes easily off our tongues and from our hearts as we celebrate her.

For a generation forty years ago, Lynda Carter was the quintessential Wonder Woman, an embodiment of the inner and outer beauty that made her interpretation of the Amazonian princess hailing from Paradise Island a treat for viewers. Today, a new audience is privy to the female empowerment of this beloved character courtesy of episodes of this classic show airing on MeTv.

When Wonder Woman ended in the late 1970s, Lynda Carter also appeared in other television roles. In addition, the actress and singer acquired a new legion of fans enamored with her musical prowess.

Today July 24th is Lynda Carter’s birthday. I send her my very best wishes as she celebrates her special day with family and friends. Lynda Carter will forever be America’s Wonder Woman!
