For nearly 30 years, the NATIONAL SEARCH FOR AMERICA’S MOST PHOTOGENIC BABY has traveled to more than 20 cities raising donation money for their respective affiliated Children’s Hospitals. The host company, AMERICAN PERFORMING ARTS NETWORK has generated over $5 MILLION DOLLARS since it’s first event in Cleveland Ohio in 1993.
A local winner is annually awarded a large trophy, and often a television news appearance, newspaper or magazine recognition and on many occasions an appearance on the Children’s Miracle Network telethon to present the donation raised in their city as a result of the competition. From the pool of local winners, one winner is annually named AMERICA’S MOST PHOTOGENIC BABY and awarded a modeling contract with a local talent agency and listed with the American Performing Arts Network Casting/Talent Bank.
Winners have appeared in films, commercials, ads and articles in national newspapers and magazines, cast in Broadway shows, and even appeared on Oprah's cutest baby!
