Author Talk – Hotel 9/11 by Joyce Ng

September 4, 2021 @ 2:00 pm, ending 3:00 pm

For the 20th year anniversary of 9/11, meet a survivor who escaped from the World Trade Center.  Joyce Ng witnessed and survived one of the worst attacks in US history on September 11, 2001. That morning, Joyce was trapped inside 3 World Trade Center, when Flight 11 crashed into the North Tower.   Debris from the first tower was falling in and around the area.  As a result, the hotel caught on fire. She and many others had to flee the burning building.   Joyce wrote a book that preserves a tragedy in American history through the voices of the people who were in the World Trade Center. Hotel 9/11 features miraculous escapes from many 9/11 survivors, including the author.  Meet Joyce Ng to hear her story, and get your signed copy of the history book. Hotel 9/11 is an artifact of the National September 11 Memorial and accepted into three presidential libraries.

Joyce is the founder of the non-profit charity, 9/11 Survivors of Three World Trade Center.  Joyce has talked with many of our nation’s leaders about 9/11 and strives to educate others on its impact.   She speaks at schools and organizations. Her message is about finding hope, and moving on with life despite escaping from this attack.
