Ann Turner Cook (above) may well be one of the most recognizable
persons as a child of all time.
Turner, now 88, was just a four months old in 1928 when a sketch of
her was selected in a contest to represent Gerber baby food.
For nearly 50 years, Cook’s identity as the Gerber baby was kept top
secret because the baby food company wanted everyone to be able
to identify with the baby as their child. After retiring from teaching,
Cook became a mystery novelist.
James H. Allen (May 15, 1928 – July 28 2015)
Allen hosted shows on KOIN, KPTV, and KATU as Rusty Nails in
Portland, Oregon from 1957 to 1972. In 1998 he wrote an
autobiographical book called "Send in the clowns." His show
on KPTV was the second-longest running children’s program
in Portland, second only to Ramblin’ Rod Anders.
A memorial service will be held at Beaverton Foursquare Church,

lieu of flowers, his family asks that donations be made to the
Oregon Diabetes Assn. or Legacy Hospice Portland.
