About Fresh Dolls

Meet Dr. Lisa - Doll Creator & Founder I never thought I would leave the academic world as a professor to pursue the life of creating dolls. My journey into retail began with my children's books. They were so successful that Walmart asked me to create dolls in the likeness of the characters. Of course, I never saw that as a part of my life’s plan, so I declined the offer three times. It wasn’t until I viewed the updated doll study, that my mind was completely changed. During the study, one of the African American girl participants was asked why the white doll was prettier. As she touched her hand, she said, “I didn’t think the brown doll’s skin was pretty because it is nasty just like mine”. I knew then and there, that I had to change my life’s focus. What I once thought was success, no longer motivated me. There was no way I could sit comfortably behind my desk as our young girls believed the lie that their skin tone was not beautiful. So it became my mission to inspire our African American girls, and all children for that matter, to see themselves for who they are – Beautiful.Read their story
