About American Girl

Since the first catalogue debuted in 1986, American Girl has provided inspiring products for each stage of a young girl's development—from her preschool days of baby dolls and fantasy play through her tween years of self-expression and individuality. Through an array of premium-quality books, dolls, clothes, toys, and accessories, American Girl has earned the loyalty of millions of girls and the praise and trust of parents and educators.

BeForever™, American Girl's signature line of historical dolls, books, and related accessories, connects girls ages 8 and up with inspiring characters and timeless stories from America's past. First introduced in 1986, BeForever gives girls today the opportunity to explore the past and think about the possibilities the future can bring.

In 1995, the company debuted a contemporary doll line that has since evolved into Truly Me™. The line, featuring 18-inch dolls, accessories, and exclusive play-based print and digital content for girls ages 8 and up, is designed to encourage self-expression and creativity.

Introduced in 2001, the Girl of the Year™ line gives voice to a diverse range of personalities and backgrounds through inspiring, relatable characters that instill a sense of pride in girls and show them there is no limit to what they can accomplish.
