Jeannie Epper, the stuntwoman known for her work in the made-for-TV version of "Wonder Woman," has died at 85.

Epper died of natural causes Sunday at her home in Simi Valley, California, according to family spokesperson Amanda Micheli.

The stuntwoman followed in the footsteps of her family as her parents, John and Frances Epper, were also stunt performers. All of her siblings — Tony, Margo, Gary, Andy and Stephanie — joined the family dynasty of stunt work as well.

"It’s all I really know, outside of being a mom or a grandma," Epper said in a 2004 documentary, "Double Dare," directed by Micheli.
