There are a couple of solutions you could try. One is to create a new initial 
state (called 'Initial' or 'Creation' or whatever) and an automatic 
transition from that state to the real initial state called 'created'. This 
should then show up in the status history. The other method is to hack the 
content_status_history skin to pluck out the Creator and CreationDate from 
the object and display them as well as the rest of the history.
