About this Event
We kick off our 2022/2023 KNOWbodies: Knowledge Through Perspective speaker series on Sunday, September 11th, 2022 with former FBI Special Agent Bill Crowley.
Southwestern Pennsylvania was forever linked with the events of September 11th, 2001, when United Flight 93 crashed into a field in Shanksville. Bill arrived on-site as part of the Federal investigation team and remained in Shanksville until September 24th, when the Federal investigation of the crash site ended.
Having spent about half of his career in the FBI prior to September 11th, and the second half after that fateful day, Bill will share his experience in the agency and how the FBI changed forever after 9/11.
