Hottest Beacon yet. Although I heard the
ill-fated '98 Sega Dreamcast edition featured
her smoking a cigarette and pretending to
ride a sheepdog.

From Wikipedia: The character of "Mavis Beacon"
is not a real person, but rather a fictional
character created to bring a personal touch
to the tutorial. The original photo of Mavis
Beacon was of a bankteller in Sherman Oaks,
California, the city in which Software
Toolworks, the original publisher, had its
offices. Former TV talkshow host Les Crane,
who was then a partner in Software Toolworks,
invented the name. Her first name was
borrowed from one of Crane's favorite
singers, Mavis Staples. Her last name
represents her role as a light to guide your
way.
Sorry Bro: I, Mavis, and a very lucky Denver
La Quinta queen-sized can testify to her
eminent reality. Let's just say that after
our private lesson, I'll ALWAYS be able to
find the "F" and the "J".
