Preparing for the 9/11 Anniversary: A Look at the Power of Journal Keeping
This special evening, organized in conjunction with the exhibition The Diary: Three Centuries of Private Lives (which includes the journals of two police lieutenants who led 9/11 rescue and recovery efforts), explores the power of journal keeping and encourages those most deeply affected by the attacks to document their experience as this anniversary year unfolds. Presenters include Bill Keegan, whose 9/11 journal is on view in the exhibition; Mary Fetchet, Director of Voices of September 11; Maureen McNeil, Director of Education, Anne Frank Center USA; and Christine Nelson, curator of The Diary. The event is co-organized by The Morgan Library & Museum, Voices of September 11, H.E.A.R.T. 9/11, and The Anne Frank Center USA.
