TAMPA, Fla. — Ann Turner Cook, whose cherubic baby face was known the world over as the original Gerber baby, has died. She was 95.
Gerber announced Cook’s death in an Instagram post on Friday.
“Many years before becoming an extraordinary mother, teacher and writer, her smile and expressive curiosity captured hearts everywhere and will continue to live on as a symbol for all babies,” the company said.
Cook was 5 months old when a neighbor, artist Dorothy Hope Smith, drew a charcoal sketch of her that was later submitted for a contest Gerber was holding for a national marketing campaign for baby food.
The image was a hit, so much so that it became the company’s trademark in 1931 and has been used in all packaging and advertising since.
For decades, though, the identity of the baby was kept secret, spurring rumors about who it was with guesses including Humphrey Bogart and Elizabeth Taylor.
In the late 1970s, it was revealed to be Cook, who grew up to be an English teacher in Tampa, Fla., and later a mystery novelist.
Cook told The Associated Press in a 1998 interview that her mother had told her when she was young that she was the baby in the illustration.

Thanks for Dr McCullough’s information on how to detox from the vax. Figure I need to have that handy in case/ when they start putting it in produce or other food products.
Are you able to get your son to take those supplements?
I didn’t see your post before I posted mine. Sorry
But it is a good story!
That young lady is spot on. Not Just children that can be stalked, anybody can. But I guess kids are less likely to understand what they are getting themselves in to.
On Facebook first started becoming popular, my nephew’s wife was posting all sorts of things about their babies. Pictures, what they did every day, what they had for lunch, I don’t know if she’s still doing it, I had to stop looking because of this ridiculous. But I figured this stuff is going to be out there forever and her kids will be able to look back with what she said about them, not all good.
Ok, I’m going to be one of those annoying Nannas and post a pic of my youngest one.....lol only because I’m biased and think she’s every bit as cute as the Gerber baby. Plus she’s white as well lol. Having said that, I have to say that I find little black babies adorable. They’re always so pudgy and cute. Pic sent to the nice lady who handles this for me lol.
I didn’t get any of the shots either
My son normally won’t take anything I suggest
I am on the preventive protocol for virus, bacterial and fungi infections.
I have been stunned over the years to see what kind of stuff people put on FB. I’m no longer on FB, but years ago, people posted so much personal information and pics.....probably the same people that would be screaming about their right to privacy.
Thanks for the Downy info, maybe they are rotating what race they put on the bottle. For a bad a decade it was a Hispanic baby, or maybe this was only in california. Yeah it was probably targeted to where the bottles went, that would make sense and actually be smart advertising.
No, nobody minded Aunt Jemima on the bottle since she’s the one that created it. I still don’t understand why she isn’t on it anymore. And does that mean her family doesn’t get any income from it? Saw a cute meme about it - I’ll see if I can find it
Happy Birthday-sir!
Did you OR will you be doing anything special today?
There’s Viral Videos On Other Platforms Calling Donald Trump A Liar For Saying Illegal Migrants Are Getting Social Security
Here’s J.J. Carrell, former US Border Deputy Patrol Agent for 22 years confirming illegals are getting MAXIMUM social security payout. They’re being paid more money from social security than an American who’s worked their whole life
“Maximum social security benefit payout”
“Here’s another sick thing that you need to understand. I worked 24 years in the border patrol. I have social security.
You’re a working man, you pour into social security. You got truckers 30 years, construction workers, nurses, stockbrokers, whatever.
When I bring in my illegal alien grandma, that’s never, never worked a day in her life, you know that she gets the maximum social security benefit payout, but she’ll get more money than me. For our grandmas and grandpas that are living paycheck to paycheck, the illegal alien grandma from Sudan and Mexico, wherever, she gets more money than the person who has worked her whole life. I mean, this is infuriating.”

She was the cutest baby ever. Boy do I feel old, that she passed away at 95 recently.
Well I have to say I think black babies are just adorable. My poor son was born with a conehead and blotchy skin all over the place. Luckily it wasn’t birthmarks and it all went away. But when I see black babies, they have the smoothest prettiest skin.

Is it possible John Adams is the most underrated president in our history?

The Quasi-War with France begins
On this day in history, July 7, 1798, the Quasi-War with France begins. This was an undeclared naval war between the United States and France extending out of continued war between Britain and France after the French Revolution.
A state of war existed between the British monarchy and revolutionary France in the 1790s. Both sides wished to prevent the Americans from joining the other side, while the Americans hoped to remain neutral. The British policy at the time was basically, if you help my enemy then YOU are my enemy. This caused the British confiscation of American ships trying to trade with France or with French possessions in the Caribbean.
The Jay Treaty of 1796 resolved this and many other issues remaining with Britain after the Revolution, but the agreement angered the French Directorate, a five-man committee then leading France. In response, France used the same British policy against America and began confiscating ships and impressing soldiers on American vessels trading with Britain.
President John Adams tried to use diplomatic channels to resolve the crisis, but in March of 1797, the French refused to meet with new American ambassador, Charles Cotesworth Pinckney. By June 1797, over 300 American ships had been taken by French vessels. Insurance costs skyrocketed. Congress met and reauthorized the creation of a US Navy and the commissioning of 12 naval vessels. It authorized the resurgence of the US Army and George Washington was asked to come out of retirement to lead it in case of war with France.
By the fall, Pinckney was joined by Elbridge Gerry and John Marshall, but French Foreign Minister, Charles Talleyrand, would not meet formally with the American commission. Instead, he sent a series of unofficial representatives who asked for financial bribes for Talleyrand to meet with them. These clandestine meetings lasted for several months until the commissioners finally refused any more dealings with the unofficial representatives and returned home.
Back in the US, the dealings in France were shared with Congress by President Adams. The whole affair became as known as the “XYZ Affair,” X, Y and Z being used as substitutes for the names of the French intermediaries. The predictable response in the US was outrage. On July 7, 1798, Congress revoked its Treaty of Alliance with France that had existed since the American Revolution. This date is normally considered to be the beginning of the “Quasi-War” with France. It is called the Quasi-War because a formal declaration of war was never issued by either side, although both sides authorized military force against naval ships.
Two days after revoking the treaty, Congress authorized the attacking of French war vessels. American naval ships began seizing French vessels and the war machine in the US continued to grow. By the fall of 1800, hundreds of American ships had been seized, while the Americans had captured dozens of French vessels.
In spite of his party’s wish for war with France, John Adams continued to pursue diplomatic means to peace behind the scenes. A change finally occurred when the Directorate was overthrown by Napoleon Bonaparte who had a more favorable attitude toward the United States. The Treaty of Mortefontaine, also called the Convention of 1800, brought the hostilities to an end when it was signed on September 30, 1800. The treaty confirmed an end to hostilities and guaranteed trade and perpetual peace between the two nations.
President Adams is generally considered to have singlehandedly prevented further war with France. The events of the Quasi-War helped reaffirm the supremacy of Congressional statutes over Presidential orders, as well as the policy of American neutrality in foreign affairs.
