Jeanne Harvey: My name is Jeanne Walker Harvey. And my mom chose the name Jeanne because it's actually a French name and she always wanted to travel to France. And I was the fourth child, a bit of an unexpected child, older brothers and sisters, and she had used family names for the older siblings. But she wanted just something fun that would make her think of France, so that's how she picked my name. And I can't say it very well in French, but it's something like Jeanne. My last name was Walker when I was growing up, and I always had to sit in the very back corner of the back row because W is at the end of the alphabet.
