Barbie’s careers included doctor, astronaut, pilot, and even a matador.

Learn how the world’s most loved doll came to be. Barbie: An American Icon will be presented by Rick Feingold, lecturer in American Business History at Bergen Community College. He holds an MBA from Penn State University and a degree in History from Rutgers University.
