Lynda Jean Carter was born in Phoenix, Arizona. Around the age of 10, she began showing interest in music and even started composing songs. Eventually, she became a participant in choirs and high school plays. After only one semester, Lynda left Arizona University to become a full-time singer. So, she joined a band named Just Us, who would tour England around 1970. The experience left Lynda dissatisfied, though, and she suddenly decided to participate in her first beauty contest, the Miss Phoenix Pageant, which she won. In a short while, she was crowned Miss Arizona and finally, the logical next step and ultimate achievement, Miss USA in 1973, which made her the official representative for the Miss World contest. After fullfiling her duties towards these organizations, Lynda decided studying to become an actress. In 1974, she enjoyed some appearances in a couple of TV shows, but without making much impact. Around this time, auditions were being held to cast the principal role in a new show having as principal character the most popular female super hero of all time, Wonder Woman.
