- Memories of Being in NYC on 9/11/2001 Twenty-Three Years Later
It started out as a picture perfect, cloudless and warm Tuesday in New York City twenty three years ago today before the events of that day would change the world forever.
9/11 Twenty Three Years Later
I almost did not write this post as I had second thoughts but I felt I wanted to share my memories of a day I will never forget. On 9/11/2001 I was right in the thick of it in a production studio in Manhattan. It was a beautiful cloudless Tuesday which on occasion I can recall as vividly as if it were yesterday.
As I mentioned I was at a TV studio preparing to do The People's Court television show before all hell broke loose. In the control room we watched the mayhem unfold. In fact, I vividly recall watching Channel 4 News in a live report from the World Trade Center area when, during the actual live report, the second plane hit the second tower. The shocked reporter just took off running and so did the cameraman.
Cell phones did not work. Neither did landlines for that matter. The only way I got word to my wife about my situation was sending an email via AOL. Does anyone have AOL anymore? I had no idea if the email would even reach her. Read the rest of the article HERE.
