Biography of Allison Harvard
Allison Elizabeth Harvard, an American model, artist, and photographer, gained recognition in the internet community. She rose to fame as the runner-up in the twelfth season of the reality show "America's Next Top Model," which aired from March 4 to May 13, 2009. Standing at a height of 178 cm, with measurements of 86-61-84 cm, she has blue eyes and is a brunette. Allison has a unique doll-like appearance, characterized by her large round eyes. She wears a size 2 in American clothing and a size 32 in European sizes.
Early Life and Education
Born on January 8, 1988, Allison Elizabeth Harvard grew up in Houston, Texas. Currently, she resides in New Orleans, Louisiana, where she attended college. In 2007, Lisa Kuznetsova published a book titled "The Story Told at Night," which featured illustrations by Allison.
Career in Modeling
Allison successfully auditioned for the twelfth season of "America's Next Top Model." During her audition, she amused and shocked the judges by expressing her obsession with blood, her interest in hemophilia, and finding nosebleeds amusing. Although these interests seemed more fitting for the vampire saga "Twilight" (2008), Allison was selected as one of the thirteen contestants competing for a $100,000 contract with "CoverGirl cosmetics." Throughout the competition, Tyra Banks, the host, ranked her at the top of the list four times, while she ended up at the bottom twice, narrowly avoiding elimination.
In the third episode, Allison had to analyze her own photoshoot, and in the sixth episode, her lackluster advertisement and image made the judges question her versatility as a beginner model. However, in the final episode, Allison appeared in a highly convincing "CoverGirl" commercial, showcasing a significant improvement in her work compared to previous shoots. While she initially struggled on the runway, Allison's progress was the most impressive by the end of the season.
Despite the significant changes and strong image transformation, Allison Harvard ultimately placed second, losing to twenty-year-old contestant Teyona Anderson from New Jersey. Following the show, Allison signed a contract with "Nous Models Management" in Los Angeles. Since her time on "America's Next Top Model," she has worked as a model for the online clothing store karmaloop.com.
