A photographer’s view of 9/11 from across the river

On the morning of September 11th, photojournalist Jennifer Brown raced down to the waterfront in Jersey City. Directly across the river from the World Trade Center, Brown photographed the attacks for the former Star-Ledger, now NJ Advance Media. She spoke to Hari Sreenivasan about the sights, sounds and emotions from her vantage point, and what it was like to capture a moment that changed history.
