She was a founding member of the Concerned Citizens for the National Museum (now the Museum Foundation of the Philippines) as well as the Heritage Conservation Society. She wrote as also a columnist for the Philippine Daily Inquirer with her byline "Sense and Sensibility", which focused on Philippine cultural history. In 2008, she became 7th Administrator of the historic Intramuros district of Manila.
In early September 2008, it was reported that administrative charges could be leveled against Harper for having allowed the cutting down of 29 trees, including nine mahogany and flame trees at the Plaza de Roma fronting Manila Cathedral.[2]
The Department of Environment and Natural Resources reported that Harper, as head of the Intramuros Administration, sought a permit in May 2008 to remove trees at the park so that the area could be landscaped and developed and to "replace [the trees] with historically appropriate trees which would not block the facade of Manila Cathedral."[2]
Harper responded that she had not ordered the trees cut, but rather asked a contractor to move the trees to another part of the park. She said that a subordinate had mistakenly given approval for the trees to be cut.[2]
WritingEdit
In 2012, she published Agueda: A Ballad of Stone and Wind.[3]
DeathEdit
Harper died on August 4, 2023, at the age of 82.[where?][4]
