‘My wish is that my doll will show children careers they may not be aware of, like a vaccinologist,’ says Dame Gilbert.
Barbie is honoring six women who are “modern-life heroes of the pandemic” with one-of-a-kind dolls made in their likeness as part of its #ThankYouHeroes program announced Wednesday.
The six women are “experts in their fields who have shown unprecedented courage during a challenging time,” according to a Mattel statement sent to USA TODAY.
