The Girl in the Wind: Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair (風の中の少女 金髪のジェニー Kaze no Naka no Shōjo Kinpatsu no Jenī?) is an anime series produced by Nippon Animation which ran for 52 episodes on Japanese TV from 1992–1993.[1] It is based on the 1854 song "Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair" by Stephen Foster.

Plot[]

The story begins in a small town, Pennsylvania in 1838. Jeanie MacDowell is a cheerful and beautiful girl with light brown hair (although this could be perceived as being blonde hair). Jeanie enjoys playing the piano and loves taking piano lessons from her mother.

Steven, a good harmonica player, and Bill, a boy who is very good at playing the banjo, are great friends of Jeanie's. They enjoy playing music together like a small band.

However, Jeanie's happy life changes dramatically after her mother suddenly passes away.

Experiencing many difficulties and learning the importance of life, she decides to devote her life to helping many people suffering from illness.

Interestingly, the series is a love story about the relationship between Steven and Jeanie-clearly a reference to Stephen Foster and his wife Jeanie.
