New York construction workers who helped in the rescue, recovery, and clean-up efforts at Ground Zero are the focus of the new documentary, “Up From Zero,” which premiered at a special showing hosted by Secretary Chao at the National Museum of American History on September 9. Secretary Chao was joined by International Union of Operating Engineers General President Frank Hanley and American History Museum’s Associate Director of Curatorial Affairs James Gardner in hosting the special preview of the one-hour film featuring original footage and personal interviews with construction workers who risked their lives at the World Trade Center site.
