Curator's Comment
Yvette Moreno left her Bronx home early on September 11 to commute downtown to her job at Carr Futures in the North Tower of the World Trade Center. Yvette had been promoted to receptionist after serving in a temporary position at the firm. Concurrently, she was attending Lehman College, pursuing a degree in sociology and psychology. Shortly after the North Tower was struck, Yvette called her family, indicating that she was heading home. Her identification card and bracelet were among the items later recovered and returned to her mother.
