Historical Notes
Todd Wider was one of many medical volunteers who joined the emergency response on 9/11. When Wider received this hard hat upon arriving in lower Manhattan, he taped a red cross to the front to identify himself as a doctor.
Wider also contributed a written remembrance documenting his 9/11 experience.
