Twenty years ago, these women told the stories of leaders, first responders, witnesses, and victims. Today, they tell their own.
Ask anybody what they were doing on the morning of Tuesday, September 11, 2001, and they'll tell you about the clear blue skies. The first phone call to"turn on the TV." The moment they began witnessing the unimaginable events that were quickly unfolding in real time: At 8:46 a.m., a plane hijacked by terrorists crashed into the World Trade Center's North Tower. Seventeen minutes later, the South Tower. Thirty-four minutes after that, the Pentagon. At 10:03 a.m.
While people across the country were rushing to pick up their kids from school, waiting for the call from a loved one that would never come, and standing in front of their TV screens in horror searching for answers to make sense of it all, journalists knew they had a job to do. For, that meant turning around a story for the magazine's black-bordered special issue in less than 48 hours.
