THE Dark Knight Archivist ✌🏽💙🦇 on Instagram: "Evening Gothamites! Today (May 16) #HistoryoftheBatman wants to wish actress #YvonneCraig (1937 - 2015) a #happybirthday! Craig, who would have been 82 years old, for us Bat fans was #BarbaraGordon / #Batgirl in the late 1960s television series "Batman" alongside #AdamWest and #BurtWard as #Batman and #Robin! When the ABC producers approached Craig to be their Batgirl for the series, although she had never seen a previous episode, she said she would watch the re-runs all summer long to get a feel of how her character can fit into this action-adventure comedy. While she starred in other major roles in 1965's "The Man from U.N.C.L.E" and the 1968 Star Trek: The Original Series episode "Whom Gods Destroy", Craig became the Barbara Gordon who rose to intense popularity in #DetectiveComics, debuting in issue 357. She premiered in the first episode of the third season, "#EnterBatgirlExitPenguin", which originally aired on ABC September 14th, 1967. The #Penguin kidnaps #CommissionerGordon's daughter, Barbara, and threatens her into agreeing to marry him. When Barbara Gordon's secret identity of Batgirl is discovered by butler #AlfredPennyworth, Batman and Robin need the help from their new friend to escape Penguin's lair and stop his schemes. Other female characters on the show played to the stereotypical strengths for women at the time: For instance, Catwoman was the seductive temptress while Aunt Harriet was the caring mother figure. Craig's Batgirl, however, stood tall with the male dominant Dynamic Duo as the smart, beautiful, independent ally, becoming an overnight symbol of female empowerment to young girls and women watching that was a social and political struggle within the 1960s. Yvonne Craig broke the mold of the definition of a superhero inside and outside of #comicbooks, which lead the way to other female actresses putting heroes to the screen. Passing away in 2015 at the age of 78, we will remember Yvonne Craig as the first Batgirl who will forever be the ideal female hero within the American comic books industry. Thanks for following and we'll have more History of the Batman soon. #LongLiveTheBat! [Sources: imdb.to/1vPTGta, bit.ly/1hNmB06]✌🏼💛💜🦇📺🎬"
