Illinois Public Media News

Today marks 23 years since nearly 3,000 people were killed in the September 11 attacks. Among the dead were at least ten people originally from (or then residing) in Illinois. One of the six firefighters from Aurora who made the 16 hour drive to New York to help the victims of the World Trade Center attack reflects on the day that changed America forever.
