QUICK FACTS
• Was named Harper after Harper Lee, the author of one of her father's favorite books "To Kill a Mockingbird." Josephine is her maternal grandmother's name.
• Raised Southern Baptist and attended church every Sunday until she left for college. Though she does absolutely believe in God, still saying grace before every meal and praying every night before bed, she doesn't consider herself particularly religious.
• Her parents divorce hit Harper extremely hard, though she didn't acknowledge, and still has never acknowledged, that the split and her mother's subsequent abandonment had any real impact on her.
• Attended the University of Georgia, where she pledged and eventually became secretary of the Delta Delta Delta sorority, on a collection of partial scholarships with the rest funded through student loans. She was the first member of her immediate family to graduate from college.
• Graduated from UGA with a degree in Criminal Justice and the expectation that she would become a lawyer. However, after a year of working in a legal services firm, pushing paper and performing menial data entry tasks, she decided law school would be a waste of both money and time. She obtained her real estate license shortly thereafter and has been working as a broker with Coldwell Banker ever since.
• Moved to Savannah shortly after graduation to be with the first in a string of older, politico boyfriends. Despite her success in real estate, she would drop it all in a second to become Mrs. So-and-So -- assuming So-and-So was attached to a certain amount of money, power, and prestige; it wouldn't be at all incorrect to call her a social climber, or a golddigger.
• In terms of personality, she's a chameleon and her colors change based on social situations and the company surrounding her. One night she can be poised and refined, Emily Post to the letter, and the next she'll be dancing on a bar and knocking back cheap tequila, sloppy drunk. Unsurprisingly, she isn't very easy to get to know on a real level. She's manipulative, her temper is explosive, and she can be incredibly vindictive and passive aggressive if she feels wronged -- sometimes it doesn't take much. She's generally the kind of person you want to go out and have a good time with, not the person you call when you really need a shoulder to lean on.
