Ann Turner Cook, whose cherubic baby face was known the world over as the original Gerber baby, has died at 95.
"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.
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.
