About me

Location	Philadelphia/Scranton, Pennsylvania, United States
Introduction	Having lost her father to Pancreatic Cancer in 2006, Taryn Jones made it her life-long mission to raise awareness about the disease throughout communities across the US. In 2007, she founded the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre affiliate of the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network, an organization that raises awareness about pancreatic cancer through fundraising, advocacy efforts, and support services. She is a recipient of both local and national recognition for her work in the pancreatic cancer community. Eileen Jantz, a freelance photographer in Philadelphia, helped create this project with Taryn, her long time college friend. After graduating from the University of Scranton, Eileen began work in independent film, then as a portrait photographer. She started a second degree in photography at the Art Institute of Philadelphia. After Taryn's loss, this project was the perfect idea for two friends to combine their life passion for a great cause.
