Hello! My name is Abbe Murphy and I am a senior at Downers Grove North High School in Downers Grove, IL and the 2017 Illinois Journalist of the Year. I started off as a feature editor my sophomore year on the newspaper and fell in love with all things journalism. This is currently my second year as editor-in-chief and my third year reporting for the Chicago Tribune's teen publication the Mash. When I'm not at deadline meetings or conducting interviews, you'll most likely find me at cross country/track practice, where I spend the rest of my free time. To see a complete list of my work from The Mash, click here. |
