Sept. 10, 2002 -- We came together over the last year -- a national collaboration of radio producers, artists, iron workers, bond traders, historians, widows and widowers, public radio listeners -- to chronicle and commemorate the life and history of the World Trade Center and its neighborhood. We set up a phone line, and hundreds of you left your testimony and remembrances, poems, music, on-site recordings, small shards of sound. From this collection, and from dozens of interviews done by producers across the nation, the Sonic Memorial Project has created "A September Story," an intimate and historic radio documentary marking the anniversary of 9/11.
