Today we pause to remember September 11, 2001, and to honor the lives lost, the first responders who ran toward danger, and the countless acts of courage and compassion that followed.

This photograph by acclaimed photojournalist Peter Turnley, part of the Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art’s collection, bears witness to that day…a reminder of both profound loss and enduring human resilience.
