I saw some of these photos during an exhibit at Grand Central Station. The
pictures are life size of people from Ground Zero. Very impressive, and
very moving. The exhibit is will open to the public at 12:00 midnight
tonight at Rockefeller Center. Don't know much about a traveling exhibit.

Subject: [OM] Faces of Ground Zero
Just caught the "Imus in the Morning" show. Had some of the photos (about
9 feet tall, 4 feet wide) from the "Faces of Ground Zero" Time/Life
exhibit/book. Taken with a Polaroid camera the size of a 1-car garage
(something like 12X12X16... FEET), located down in the Bowery near Ground
Zero. Mostly used for museum work. Lens from a U2 spie plane. Two guys
INSIDE the camera, pulling film through it, etc.
If you missed the Imus show, look for the book in bookstores, and the
traveling exhibit.
