Link to Permanent Collection - 9/11: Events of the Day




On September 11, 2001, Marisa DiNardo had been working as a bond trader at Cantor Fitzgerald for approximately one year.
 
The night before, Marisa celebrated her mother Ester’s birthday with family and friends at Windows on the World.  Marisa had already arrived to work at World Trade Center 1 when the plane hit the building and did not survive the attack. 

A year later, Marisa’s heavily damaged and charred pocketbook was returned to her family.  Until the morning of their StoryCorps remembrance, the family had found it much too painful a task to rifle through the contents of Marisa’s bag, but after doing so, decided to gift the pocketbook to the Memorial Museum. 

The contents within her recovered bag included various credit cards, a Blockbuster card, ID cards, and the receipt from the celebratory dinner at Windows on the World from the evening before in honor of Ester’s birthday.
