Richard Picciotto
FDNY Chief and Highest Ranking Firefighter to Survive the World Trade Center Collapse
When the North Tower of the World Trade Center collapsed on September 11, 2001, Richard Picciotto, a FDNY battalion commander, was inside it, on a stairwell between the sixth and seventh floors, along with a handful of rescue personnel and one “civilian.”
The highest-ranking firefighter to survive the World Trade Center collapse, and the last fireman to escape devastation, Richard “Pitch” Picciotto is the author of the New York Times bestseller Last Man Down.
Please join us to hear Chief Picciotto relate his experiences on that terrible day in United States History. Chief Picciotto will be available after his presentation to sign copies of his book Last Man Down. |
