Jeremy Harper

Jeremy Harper (born June 18, 1976) is a UAB computer science graduate and a fund-raiser for PUSH America, which helps children with disabilities.

In 1997 Harper rode in PUSH's "Journey of Hope", a 3,500 bicycle tour from San Francisco to Washington D.C. From June 18—September 14, 2007 Harper counted from 1 to 1,000,000 on a live webcast from his apartment. His friends Eric Brown and Rob Hayes helped set up a website and secured sponsorships. The final installment was simulcast at the Barking Kudu.

In 2010, Harper, Geno Pearson, and Jeff Clanton started Birmingham Mountain Radio, an internet-based radio station which features live, local disc jockeys.
