Jake Fogelnest, age 16, has been running Squirt TV, his Manhattan Cable public-access show, for over a year. Shot on a tripod and edited with a Camcorder and a VCR, Squirt TV is the televisual equivalent of a zine. The show has attracted such stars as The Beastie Boys and Wax, who have appeared live from Fogelnest's bedroom studio. It's also attracted MTV, which has snapped up the program for broadcast this fall.
Fogelnest's other plans include the launch of a Squirt website and a record label. And if that's not ambitious enough, he still has the 12th grade to pass. Squirt: +1 (212) 864 2552.
