The Face of America Project
In 2011, Americans will commemorate the tenth anniversary of September 11, 2001. 
It was a day that was aptly described by the headline in The Scranton Tribune, Hate Hits Home. It was a day described by many people as the day our country changed forever.
The Face of America project is our attempt to honor and 
remember all those who lost their lives on that tragic day. It is a living memorial to all those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country and its values since 9/11.
It is our dream to travel the length and breadth of America searching for the Face of America.
In our opinion, the Face of America belongs to people who represent America on its best days. People who give service to others by doing acts of kindness that give people hope and a belief that tomorrow can and will be better than today.
The face of America belongs to people who want to give something of themselves to their country, their community and their world.
With your help, we will find these people. We will record their stories. We will ask them to help us determine if and how they and their contry have changed since September 11, 2001, and we will produce Face 
of America segments like the ones you can view in the Video section of our website.
We will speak and write about the Face of America and our experiences traveling along the blue-lined roads of our country during the project.
When the project is finished, we will donate these materials to the permanent 
memorial honoring the heroes of Flight 93 in Shanksville, PA.
My wife and I are retired teachers and independent producers. We have spent a lifetime telling stories of hope, inspiration and service.
Since that painful day in September 2001, we have produced 31 
programs for a series we titled What Is America? One of the predominant themes of this series is recorded in two words spoken often by the people we interviewed, “Changed Forever.”
You will find a more detailed account of our life work in the Articles section of this website.
OurBlog features news articles about our visits to different sections of the country.
The Face of America project is a big dream. Some will say it is an impossible dream, but we are determined to do this. We will need help with scheduling, housing, transportation, and sponsorships. With some luck, encouragement and support we can make this dream become a reality.
