  • Summary

  • Today’s fascinating episode of Electronically Yours features world-famous photographer, Joe Woolhead.

    Born and raised in Dublin, Joe has been living in New York City for over 27 years. Initially, he worked in construction as a labourer, painter, plasterer and stone mason. After a serious accident in 1996, he returned to college and rediscovered his passion for creative arts, particularly poetry and photography. When the World Trade Center attacks happened on September 11th 2001, he grabbed his camera and shot what he witnessed over the course of three days. His photographs from that time were published all over the world.

    In 2004 he was appointed as official WTC photographer and his main focus became the rebuilding of the disaster site. In 2006, he also started work at the 9.11 Memorial documenting the construction of the museum and the memorial pools. At present, he continues to photograph the progress of work at World Trade Center.

    Ladies and gentlemen – hear the story of a mesmeric creative soul - Joe Woolhead.
