Marcy Borders

Index Marcy Borders

Marcy Borders (August 12, 1973 – August 24, 2015) was an American bank clerk who worked in the World Trade Center and survived its collapse, following the al-Qaeda attacks on September 11, 2001. Stan Honda, a photographer for Agence France Presse, captured an image of Borders, completely covered in dust from the building collapse, that subsequently became widely described as "iconic". The image became so well-known and so widely distributed, that Borders became known as "The Dust Lady". [1]
