Lynda Carter Pens Emotional Tribute to Her ‘Beautiful’ Wonder Woman Stuntwoman Jeannie Epper After Her Death

Lynda Carter paid tribute to her 'Wonder Woman' stunt double, Jeannie Epper, who died at age 83 on May 5

Carter, 72, reacted to the news as she shared a photo from the hit ‘70s TV show’s set of herself and Epper in matching Wonder Woman costumes. From the start of her career — which kicked off when she was just 9 years old and rode a horse bareback down a mountain, per Entertainment Weekly — Epper was pushing boundaries, and she earned over 160 stunt credits in her time. She came from a family of stunt people, as her father, John Epper, began working as a stuntman in the 1930s, and she and all her five siblings followed in his footsteps.
