Bill Greening

It falls to the DEC and EPA to do all they can for these residents because it can never be enough.

Bob Mackie made his biggest splash with Barbie by Bill Greening.

As a young adult Barbie collector, I vividly remember seeing the first Bob Mackie Barbie doll in a print ad of Barbie Bazaar Magazine in 1990.

I was mesmerized by this plastic goddess.

I feel very lucky to have played a small part in his legacy and lucky that Bob shared his magic with Barbie and millions of other fans.

I'm grateful a little bit of Bob's glamour sits happily on my Barbie shelf at home.
