When i was five my hero was the Lone Ranger, I used to watch reruns on tv. so I was a masked cowgirl for Halloween that year.
I loved Batman. I mean LOVED Batman. The TV show–Adam West is still the best! The comic books–I collected them all.

I even have a prize keepsake mini-poster of Batman & Robin which is autographed by Adam West and Burt Ward. Cool–way cool : )

There wasn’t a great selection of television when I was a young, but I remember wanting to be Annie Oakley. Of course as soon as I learned to read, my ambition was to be a librarian, LOL.
I wanted to be a teacher.
There wasn’t a specific person or character I wanted to be but I did want to grow up and be a geologist. Everywhere my family went I would bring home at least 5 pounds of rocks.
I didn’t have a hero from tv at that age or even a specific person I wanted to emulate. I just wanted to write books and do the illustrations myself.
We did not have tv when I was growing up or go to movies. I don’t think I had a hero.
I wanted to be the Bionic Woman the original series, I loved that show!
MacGyver was pretty darn cool, yeah, I think I would have liked to be him.
You know, there was never a certain person I wanted to be when I was a kid. I kinda just wanted to be me 🙂
I remember wanting to be a belly dancer so bad. Not sure where the idea came from. 😉
I wanted to be Laura Ingalls and live on the prairie.
I wanted to be Catwoman. I had/have a crush on Batman and they make a great match. Plus, she always wore cool clothes.

I wanted to be a famous singer – I didn’t care which one, I just wanted to have that talent and to be able to stand up in front of huge audiences and have everyone cheering for me.
I am really showing my age. I wanted to be Marlin Perkins. He was on Wild Kingdom and got to play with all the animals. I wanted to play with all the animals.

When I was five? I could mention heroes that most of you wouldn’t even recognize, but my all-time favorite was WONDER WOMAN. Boy was she built, and she was so powerful, and she was EVERYWHERE and she was sensitive and caring, and well . . . you get the picture. The Lone Ranger and the Cisco Kid came in second and third. Of course, when I was five, these were all comic book heroes with a little bit of nudging from weekly radio shows. They say the long-term memory is the last to go . . .
I wanted to be a gymnast.
It was Wonder Woman for me too.
