Birth of a baby televised -- Gordon Campbell Kerr was born, by caesarian section, to a young denver couple tonight as television audiences across the nation looked in on the hospital delivery room. The public saw the infant lifted from his mother, cleansed, wrapped in blankets and then heard his first cries. The history-making event was sponsored by a pharmaceutical firm during an American medical association meet. It was carried on 49 TV stations. December 2, 1952. (Photo by AP Wirephoto).
