FAMOUS FIRSTS
Who was the first actress to portray Wonder Woman in a live action TV production?

Many people have said Lynda Carter, but it was actually Cathy Lee Crosby in a 1974 TV pilot movie attempt, predating Carter’s portrayal of the amazing Amazon in her classic series.
The brief (5 minute test reel) attempt of a pilot in the late 1960s by the same people behind the Adam West-Burt Ward Batman series was never aired on TV, hence the accuracy of the Crosby-Carter statement.
