  • Jeanne Fleming is an American Celebration Artist from New York, who organized the Harbor Festival Fair in 1986, the Official Land Celebration for the Centennial of the Statue of Liberty and who is currently director of New York's Village Halloween Parade. One of Fleming's signatures is her use of pageant sized puppets – giant rod puppets operated by teams of puppeteers. For Liberty's party in 1986, she "... invited all the great statues of the world to her birthday party and created giant puppets to represent them. Each one arrived accompanied by native music," Fleming explained. The centennial extravaganza lasted three days and drew 12 million people, and is said to have been the largest public event in the world as of that date.
