Barbara Gordon (Batgirl)

Batgirl is one of Batman's allies. In reality, she is James Gordon's daughter, Barbara, a librarian.

Background Information
Barbara "Babs" Gordon, is a librarian by day, and a spirited crimefighter by night. She occasionally partners with Robin, or her boyfriend Jason Bard, a Vietnam War veteran with a chronic knee injury who is a private detective. Eventually Barbara reveals her secret identity to her father (who had already discovered it on his own). In 1972, she moved to Washington, D.C., wanting to serve as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives intending to give up her career as Batgirl. However, soon after, she eventually puts the mask back on and teams up with Superman for a few years. By 1975 she was back in Gotham City teaming up with Robin and Batwoman. She would stay in Gotham for the rest of the decade.
