Happy birthday, Anna Turner Cook!
Anna was chosen as the original, official “Gerber Baby”–and she still is. I just finished a pack of arrowroot cookies with her picture on it. And I don’t want to hear any nasty cracks about being too old for arrowroot cookies: the store was out of animal crackers.
I find it hard to imagine a nicer way for anyone to make an indelible mark on our popular culture.

Very interesting. She looks very well for her age. Probably that baby food,
ha.
Wow! I wonder what it’s like to see your baby picture all over the place for your whole life 🙂
