Jessica Altman, the daughter of Lynda Carter inherited a lot from her mother. Not only does she have her mother’s perfect figure, but also her iconic voice. Lynda’s career peaked when she was in her 20s and she won Arizona’s beauty pageant.
Soon after, she became the topic of discussion, reaching the semi-finals of the 1972 international pageant. When she stopped participating in pageants, she turned to acting.
Jessica Altman sort of took after her mother. However, she didn’t follow in her mother’s footsteps.
What Does Jessica Altman Do For A Living
Jessica Altman is a litigation attorney in Washington DC. She followed in her father’s footsteps and studied law and psychology. However, she could have easily followed her mother’s path since they are just very similar!
Despite her career choice, Jessica still spends time with her mom. On several occasions, her mother has posted videos and images of them together.
Jessica once shared the stage with her mother while she was on tour. This only goes to show that she could easily shift careers should her current professional gig fail.
Back in 2017, Lynda posted a photo with her daughter as they performed at the John F Kennedy Center for Performing Arts. Both ladies looked stunning in the video with the caption “Love this mother-daughter time.”
She was born in Phoenix, Arizona in 1990. Altman is the daughter of Lynda Carter and Robert Altman. She was raised by her mom alone after her parents’ divorce when she was only three years old.
When Jessica reached high school age, she decided to go backpacking across Europe for two months with a friend during summer break.
Education
Jessica Altman tried to follow in her mother’s footsteps by attending Arizona State University. However, she dropped out only after one year of studying Japanese and theater.
She didn’t want education to define who she was or limit the opportunities that would come her way as a result – Jessica Altman enrolled herself into acting classes for two years at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art.
She decided to drop out of acting school as well after receiving an offer for a hosting gig on the online show “The Stream.” Jessica Altman spent her days interviewing guests and answering questions from viewers.
Eventually, Jessica followed in her father’s footsteps. She studies law and psychology as her majors in University.
