Evidently, Johnson & Johnson may have known.
Talcum powder is made from talc, a mineral made up mainly of the elements magnesium, silicon, and oxygen.

However, some talc contains asbestos, a substance known to cause cancers, in and around the lungs, when inhaled.

Talcum powder lawsuits claim that manufacturers knew their talc was contaminated by asbestos, and could cause mesothelioma and ovarian cancer, but they did nothing to warn consumers about the risk of their products. Thousands of people are now filing mesothelioma and ovarian cancer lawsuits against Johnson & Johnson (20,000 cases consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. Hundreds more are pending in state courts) and other talcum powder manufacturers (Vanderbilt Minerals, Colgate-Palmolive and Imerys Talc America).
On Oct. 18, 2019, Johnson & Johnson issued a voluntary recall for one lot of Johnson’s Baby Powder, after a U.S. Food and Drug Administration test found trace levels of chrysotile asbestos contamination.
In May 2020, Johnson & Johnson announced that it would no longer sell Johnson’s Baby Powder, in both the United States and Canada.

IARC classifies talc that contains asbestos as “carcinogenic to humans.”
Based on the lack of data from human studies and on limited data in lab animal studies, IARC classifies inhaled talc not containing asbestos as “not classifiable as to carcinogenicity in humans.”
Based on limited evidence from human studies of a link to ovarian cancer, IARC classifies the perineal (genital) use of talc-based body powder as “possibly carcinogenic to humans.”

IARC = International Agency for Research on Cancer

And often the smartest guy in the room is also the dumbest guy in the room! If you get my drift . . .
