Bionic Woman Star Lindsay Wagner, 76, Makes Rare Public Appearance

Lindsay Wagner, best known for her iconic 1970s role as the Bionic Woman, has made a rare public appearance at the age of 76. The actress shot to fame playing Jaime Sommers, a woman given superhuman abilities through cybernetic implants after a near-fatal skydiving accident.

Wagner first took on the role in 1975 as a guest star on The Six Million Dollar Man opposite Lee Majors. The character proved so popular that her death was rewritten, leading to her own spin-off series, The Bionic Woman, which ran from 1976 to 1978 and earned a Primetime Emmy.

Born on 22 June 1949 in Los Angeles, Wagner began her career with episodic roles on shows like Adam-12 and The Paper Chase. She has been married four times, with her third marriage to stuntman Henry Kingi producing two sons, Dorian and Alex, both of whom have worked as stuntmen.

She also has several projects in development, such as the historical feature Jimmy Comes Marching Home and the drama PELLETT.
