Dorothy Gibson was born on May 17, 1889 to John A. Brown and Pauline Caroline Boesen as Dorothy Winifred Brown in Hoboken, New Jersey.〔Phillip Gowan and Brian Meister, "The Saga of the Gibson Women," ''Atlantic Daily Bulletin'' (2002), vol. 3, p. 10; Daughtry, Greg.

In 1909, the year before she married George Henry Battier, Jr.,〔Gowan and Meister, vol. 3, p. 10〕 Dorothy Gibson began posing for famous commercial artist Harrison Fisher, becoming one of his favorite models.〔''Billboard Magazine'', "Dorothy Gibson: The Harrison Fisher Girl with the New American Eclair Stock Co.," November 11, 1911, p. 14〕 Dorothy's image appeared regularly on posters, postcards, various merchandising products and in book illustrations over the next three years. Fisher also often chose her likeness for the covers of best-selling magazines such as ''Cosmopolitan'', ''Ladies Home Journal'', and the ''Saturday Evening Post''.〔Magazine cover art by Harrison Fisher featuring Dorothy Gibson includes the ''Saturday Evening Post'' (April 8, 1911), ''Cosmopolitan'' (June and July 1911) and ''Ladies' Home Journal'' (June 1912)〕 Dorothy was widely publicized during this time as "The Original Harrison Fisher Girl".
Meanwhile, Dorothy separated from Battier, though the couple was not divorced until 1913.
