Pleasantville Woman to Compete on 'Wheel of Fortune'
Robyn O'Brien, who grew up in Briarcliff, filmed her episode at the end of January.
"It literally all happened so fast."
Pleasantville resident Robyn O'Brien, who grew up in Briarcliff Manor, said her husband Jerry submitted an audition tape to ABC game show Wheel of Fortune and, "I received an email in November stating that I had been chosen to audition."
"So we went to the audition on December 5th, and I did so well I made it to the finals!" Robyn O'Brien continued in an email. "They told all of the finalists that if we were chosen to be on the show, we'd receive a letter in the mail by the end of December."
