Lynda Carter will forever go down as the very first Wonder Woman, successfully portraying Amazonian Diana Prince. But what many might not have known was that before she landed this historic role, she was actually given the title of Miss World USA of 1972 right before she decided to study acting. And while she started off in smaller roles, she couldn’t have known the kind of stardom she would end up having when she was chosen to play the role of Wonder Woman on television for almost 4 years.
