CQ: How many items do you have and what got you started?

I have well over 3000 items. Everything from soap, food, underwear, cups, statues, to action figures and dolls. It all started when I was 5 years old when I got a 45 record of "Wonder Woman: Prisoner on Christmas Island". Later that year I got a second collectable, a long scar under my chin. I was in the bath tub and heard the theme song from the show with Lynda Carter coming from the living room. I was so excited that I jumped up in the tub, slipped, and BOOM! Split my chin open. My mother says I cried the whole way to the hospital. Not because I was hurt, but because I was missing my favorite show. I collected 12 stitches that day!

CQ: If Wonder Woman were to run for president, what would be her platform?

She would bring equal rights to everyone no matter their race, gender, age, class, religion, or sexual orientation. She'd put a lot of focus on environmental issues, and the importance of education.


CQ: Is your husband tolerant of your collection? We see it takes over your Manhattan apartment. Does he have his own small room?

My husband loves the collection to a point. He's proud of it but loves to tease me at the same time. He does have his own little "cell" that I don't put any Wonder Woman stuff in, but he pretty much can't escape her. As long as I can cover my share of the rent and bills, he doesn't get mad when I spend thousands of dollars on crap from the 60's. Well, I'm sure he'd be a little upset, but he wouldn't yell about it. Not if he's knows what's good for him! Ha-ha-ha!
