The last photograph became his testimony — a record of what he refused to look away from.
A Photographer's Final Moments on 9/11, and the Last Frame He Shot
Bill Biggart, a 54-year-old freelance photographer, was documenting the World Trade Center collapse on September 11, 2001, when the south tower fell. He continued shooting until the end. His camera and final memory card were recovered from the rubble three days later, bearing one last image of a firefighter and the smoke-choked street. Biggart is among at least three photographers who died covering the attacks, leaving behind a body of work that captured the day from the ground.
