In her words “Sometime in 1984, Wonder Woman appeared on our television. I had never seen anyone like her; in my proper suburban Brooklyn neighborhood, women were mostly wives and moms who stayed home, wore appropriate clothing and deferred to their husbands. But there she was: Tall and strong, with piercing blue eyes and a gold eagle on her chest, bare legs in bright red boots and bracelets with the magical power to stop bullets.

A lasso that forced the truth out of all the men she caught. And she never looked afraid.
