America;Five Famous Symbols Of American Culture;Now,lets talk about the Barbie;Barbie is a best-selling fashion doll launched in 1959. The doll is produced by Mattel, Inc., and is a major source of revenue for the company. The American businesswoman Ruth Handler (1916-2002) is regarded as the creator of Barbie, and the dolls design was inspired by a German doll called Bild Lilli. ;Barbie has been an important part of the toy fashion doll market for nearly fifty years, and has been the subject of numerous controversies and lawsuits, often involving parody of the doll and her lifestyle. In recent years, Barbie has faced increasing competition from the Bratz range of dolls. ;Barbies full name is Barbara Millicent Roberts. In a series of novels published by Random House in the 1960s, her parents names are given as George and Margaret Roberts from the fictional town of Willows, Wisconsin. Barbie has been said to attend Willows High School and Manhattan International High School in New York City, based on the real-life Stuyvesant High School. She has an on-off romantic relationship with her beau Ken (Ken Carson), who first appeared in 1961. Like Barbie, Ken shares his name with one of Ruth Handlers children. A news release from Mattel in February 2004 announced that Barbie and Ken had decided to split up, but in February 2006 they were back together again. ;Photos Show;穿礼服的芭比;;;;;;;;;;不同职业的芭比;;;;;;时尚的芭比;;;;;有异域风情的芭比;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;辛苦大家咯！！
