“Barbie has always represented that a woman has choices. Even in her early years, Barbie did not have to settle for only being Ken’s girlfriend or an inveterate shopper.

-- Ruth Handler (creator of the Barbie doll), on being inspired by her young daughter Barbara’s fascination with teenage life and love for fashion dolls.

Comment by Pamela on December 22, 2011 at 23:37 Has anyone been to one of the US Barbie conventions?? I was wondering what it is like. It seems to be pretty $$ to attend and wondering if it is worth it?
