Barbie was founded by Ruth Handler, a mama and visionary entrepreneur whose inspiration for Barbie came from watching her daughter project her dreams and aspirations onto paper dolls. Ruth's philosophy behind Barbie was that through the doll a little girl could be anything she wanted to be and that she has choices. Over 60 years, Barbie has empowered girls to imagine themselves in aspirational roles from princesses to presidents.
