Anna Turner Cook was the original model of the baby food company; Gerber products Company owned by Dan Gerber. The identity of the infant, however, was kept hidden for decades, leading to suspicions about who it was, with Humphrey Bogart and Elizabeth Taylor being among the people who were rumored to be the face in the Gerber illustration.

It was eventually found to be Cook, who went on to become an English teacher in Tampa, Florida, and later a mystery author, in the late 1970s. In a 1998 interview with The Associated Press, Cook said her mother had told her she was the baby in that illustration on the food containers.

Cook was 5 months old when a neighbor, artist Dorothy Hope Smith, made a charcoal sketch of her, which was later entered into a contest held by Gerber for a national baby food marketing campaign.
