NEW YORK Like any serious photographer in New York City last Sept. 11, Bill Biggart grabbed his cameras and rushed downtown to capture images of the unfolding nightmare before him. But unlike any other, Biggart didn't return home.
Other photographers got close to the burning towers that morning, but Biggart -- a lifelong photojournalist who had been embroiled in numerous war zones from Northern Ireland to Gaza -- was compelled to get that little bit closer.
Biggart was killed when the second tower came down -- the only professional photographer known to have lost his life that day.
