It was a tale of loss and recovery, of courage and sorrow,
of horror and inspiration. Tania Head’s astonishing account
of her experience on September 11, 2001—from crawling
through the carnage and chaos to escaping the
seventy-eighth-floor sky lobby of the burning south tower to
losing her fiancé in the collapsed north tower—transformed
her into one of the great victims and heroes of that tragic
day. Tania selflessly took on the responsibility of giving a
voice and a direction to the burgeoning World Trade Center
Survivors’ Network, helping save the “Survivor Stairway” and
leading tours at Ground Zero, including taking then-governor
Pataki, Mayor Bloomberg, and former mayor Giuliani on the
inaugural tour of the WTC site. She even used her own assets
to fund charitable events to help survivors heal. But there
was something very wrong with Tania’s story—a terrible
secret that would break the hearts and challenge the faith
of all those she claimed to champion. Told with the unique insider perspective and authority of
Angelo J. Guglielmo, Jr., a filmmaker shooting a documentary
on the efforts of the Survivors’ Network, and previously one
of Tania’s closest friends, The Woman Who Wasn’t There
is the story of one of the most audacious and
bewildering quests for acclaim in recent memory—one that
poses fascinating questions about the essence of morality
and the human need for connection at any cost.
