Scarsdale's Got Talent

Here are three local talents: a filmmaker, an artist and a storyteller. Take a look at their work:

quinnMurphyYoung Filmmaker Wins PSA Video Contest about Skin Cancer: Film and visual media in general have always interested Quinn Murphy. When she came across a video contest co-sponsored by the Jeff Dulude Melanoma Foundation and Edgemakers.com, there was no question she had to enter. The contest challenged teens to create a PSA warning the danger from tanning beds and to spread awareness of skin cancer. Her mom is a melanoma survivor and she knows firsthand how scary and serious the disease is. She hopes her award winning video helps build awareness about this very serious form of skin cancer. Quinn resides in Hartsdale and will be a senior at The Ursuline School in New Rochelle. She plans on being a film major in college. Watch her video here and share it with your teens.
