Edit
  • Trivia
    She is the granddaughter of Major Malcolm Wheeler-Nicholson, who started DC Comics (home of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman), and of his Swedish-born wife, Elsa Sachsenhausen Bjorkböm. Unfortunately the Major was financially squeezed out of the company, so the family has no financial connection with DC Comics today.
