The story of William A. Turnier, the man who designed the Oreo cookie

In 1924, the center was filled with a ring of laurels, two turtledoves and a thicker, more mechanical Oreo font. Then, in 1952, the current cookie was created. Of that design, architecture critic Paul Goldberger wrote in the Times on the cookie’s 75th anniversary, “It stands as the archetype of its kind, a reminder that cookies are designed as consciously as buildings, and sometimes better.”
