Joel Meyerowitz
For more than a decade, Joel Meyerowitz photographed the World Trade Center at dawn, at night, in every kind of weather and light. After the towers were gone, he started taking pictures right down in the World Trade Center site. Kurt talks with Meyerowitz about working among the wreckage and recovery workers, nearly every day.
