Jeff Scarborough was the only cameraman on duty at WNBC's newsroom
in New York when the attacks of 9/11 began. Armed with privileged
information from the '93 attack on the World Trade Center-realizing
both towers were doomed-Jeff pulled out of an emergency convoy just
short of the WTC as he and reporter Rob Morrison approached the
burning towers. Taking charge at the scene, Jeff ordered live-truck
engineer Eddie Alonzo to stay 500 feet away and told all responding
crews to back-off-dangerously becoming NBC's sole cameraman
broadcasting live from Ground Zero. He permitted only the live-shot
reporter to join him at his camera position-and during their live
broadcast, the South Tower collapsed. They ran for their lives;
Jeff rescued Eddie and stayed to videotape the panic and the North
Tower collapse. "September's Camera" is the story of that fateful
day, and of a career lived on the edge of danger-as Jeff's lens
captured conflict, urban riots, blackouts, serial killers, plane
crashes and human frailty in all its forms.
