If you guessed Judy Strangis, you were right! 

Strangis spoke about her career on Electra Woman and Dyna Girl in a 2024 interview with Rossiter Castinado

She described the series as 'campy and different' and her co-star Deidre Hall as a 'gem' who she remains friends with.

'I think that helped the whole show,' she said of the chemistry with her co-star. 

She said that the superhero tandem paved the way for future female superheroes such as Wonder Woman: 'We were the Batman and Robin of the day.'  

Strangis began her career as a child star, appearing in roles on Dragoon Wells Massacre in 1957, Westinghouse Desilu Playhouse in 1958, Pay or Die! in 1960, Shirley Temple's Storybook in 1960, and The Untouchables in 1961.

Strangis appeared on the legendary sci-fi series The Twilight Zone in 1963, and two episodes of Batman in 1966.

'Everybody wanted to be on Batman, so I think I did it just to have fun,' Strangis said in the interview with Castinado.
