Lyle Wesley Waggoner (born April 13, 1935) is an American actor and former model, best known for his work on The Carol Burnett Show from 1967 to 1974 and for playing the role of Steve Trevor in the Wonder Woman television series from 1975 to 1979. Waggoner was also the first centerfold for Playgirl (albeit with limited nudity) in June 1973. In 1975, a year after leaving the Burnett Show, Waggoner landed the role of Steve Trevor for the pilot of what would become the television series Wonder Woman. The subsequent series, in which Waggoner played opposite Lynda Carter, ran for three seasons until 1979. Waggoner also appeared in several TV movies and minor motion pictures during the 1970s and 1980s, often cast for “hunk” appeal. He has also made guest appearances on numerous television series including Charlie`s Angels, Mork and Mindy, The Golden Girls, Ellen, and most recently The War at Home. Waggoner has also played at least three different roles on The Love Boat, Fantasy Island, and Murder She Wrote throughout their respective runs.
Waggoner has had one spouse. His wife, Sharon Kennedy, is an actress, financial consultant, and realtor. The couple married in 1961 and have two sons, Jason and Beau. He currently resides near Jackson, Wyoming where he is a sculptor. His works can be seen at Galleries West Fine Art in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and are usually humorous renditions of lovely ladies some of which are cast at Eagle Bronze in Lander, Wyoming.
