(Original recording made in 2002)
In 2002 the journalist Gary Pomerantz was on a book tour for a gripping work of non-fiction, "Nine Minutes, Twenty Seconds: A True Story of Tragedy and Triumph." This little known story of heartbreak and heroism was truly amazing.
The author came out to our studios in Yellow Springs to talk about this story. Bear in mind that this interview look place less than a year after the horrific events of September 11, 2001.
