Barbie Turns 50
Edited By Anna Vander Broek and Michael Noer , 03.05.09, 06:00 PM EST.
She is an American icon, a business phenomenon and a real doll. Since her introduction on March 9, 1959, Mattel has sold more than 1 billion Barbie dolls, nearly 100 million of those last year alone. She is the ultimate career woman (108 different jobs); a strong, single woman (she dumped Ken in 2004); and a three-time presidential candidate. Along the way she has fired the ambitions of countless little girls.
Happy birthday, Barbie.
