With her wildly uninhibited personality, Hara almost effortlessly won the prestigious role of Century Productions' official Spokeswoman.

Hara's career as spokeswoman began in the virtual online community known as Cybertown. During her brief residence there, she often entertained; holding extravagant parties and exotic fashion shows in her private home located at Area51. Unfortunately, the frequency of those events put her drastically over-budget and she had to relocate to a more economical base of operations.

ROCKEFELLER CENTER 1995

Thanks to the combined efforts of Ellen Rixford, and The School of Visual Arts' Gallery & Exhibitions Department, the students of SVA's puppet class were able to display their "other-wordly" creations in Rockefeller Center during the holiday season of 1995. Hara was about to have her fifteen minutes of fame...

The holiday display windows were such a success that they stayed up until almost mid-February and were reviewed in the following New York Times Article:

FOR CHILDREN by Dulcie Leimbach
December 22, 1995

(excerpt)
Aliens do not do winter that much differently from the way you or I do. These six new holiday windows explore the notion that outwordly creatures have an Earth-bound holiday whirl of their own.

The windows were designed by students from the School of Visual Arts, working under a teacher there, Ellen Rixford, a designer of puppets and displays. The windows' themes include baking, a musical "Joy to the Universe" and "Dressing for the Party," in which the main dress, a virgin-white satin, is like the Bethlehem star that beckoned through the night...

"Dressing for the Party" was designed by Robert Mendoza and Francine Kaplan.

Unfortunately, her "fifteen minutes of fame" felt like only nine; and she now resides deep inside a storage center encased in a plastic garbage bag where officials will find her body decades from now... Alas, poor Ophelia.

Suprisingly, Hara's career was far from over... she had one more evolution left...

The newspaper ad on the right (featuring Roz, The Hara Toons' alien keyboardist) appeared in the Village Voice's 1999 Literary Supplement. At the time, Century Productions had just moved off of America Online (AOL) and was still being hosted at Mabelyn.com.
