Harry Crane heads the newly created Television Department at the Sterling Cooper advertising agency. He spends much of his time at work with Pete Campbell, Paul Kinsey and Ken Cosgrove. Harry’s promotion to department head came after he proposed that the cosmetics client Belle Jolie sponsor a controversial episode of The Defenders. Although the company declined, Bertram Cooper complimented Harry’s initiative. When Harry suggested to Roger Sterling that the agency start a department devoted solely to television, Roger agreed and put Harry in charge. Although his title has changed, his salary has not increased much and he continues to share an office.
Harry is married; his wife Jennifer, who is pregnant with their first child, works at a phone company. He had a one-night stand with Hildy, Pete’s secretary, following the Nixon-Kennedy election.
