It was a beautiful, sunny Tuesday morning in New York City on September 11, 2001.
Michael Hingson, blind since birth, and his guide dog, Roselle had arrived early at his office on the 78th floor of the North Tower of the World Trade Center to set up for a meeting. 
Little did Michael know that their building and the South Tower, were about to be struck by airplanes commandeered by terrorists. What ensued, would test both Michael and his dog in ways he could never have imagined.
In this episode, marking the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, our guest Michael Hingson, will tell us how a lifetime of learning, determination and reliance on his other senses along with Roselle’s training helped prepare them to navigate over 1400 stairs, which led them out of the building and eventually to safety.
