 Daily, William Rodriguez met with coworkers for breakfast at the Windows on the World Restaurant on the 106th floor of World Trade Center Tower #1. Nearly two hundred people, most of William's friends, were in the restaurant on the morning of September 11. None of them survived. For nearly twenty years, the Puerto Rican born, New Jersey resident was a custodian in-charge of the stairwells in the North Tower. In possession of the master key that opened all of the stairwell doors at each floor in the 110 story building, William Rodriguez personally saved the lives of 15 people that day and aided NYC firefighters in saving hundreds of others. Having told his chilling account to thousands of people across the globe, he comes to Sacramento November 3rd. Come hear his stories of the heroic and selfless first responders, his personal witness to explosions in the subbasements “before” the plane hit the north tower and during the rescue efforts, and tales of strange noises coming from the vacant and restricted 34th floor.

honored Mr. Rodriguez by inviting him to the Whitehouse. However, when Rodriguez refused to alter his eye witness testimony regarding explosions heard prior to the planes hitting the top of the WTC 2, the invitations stopped. And, even though he testified for hours in front of the 9/11 Commission, none of his testimony was included in the Commission's final report. Rodriguez has helped draft and implement legislation on behalf of victim families and first responders and was a champion, along with victim family members, in demanding the creation of the 9/11 Commission.
William Rodriguez has electrified audiences in Europe, Asia, and South America, and his uncompromising candor will provide for an evening you will never forget. Join fellow Sacramentians in giving him a true Hero’s welcome. |

September 11th, 2001 started out like any normal day for William Rodriguez, who had been working as a janitor in the North Tower when disaster struck ..... Rodriguez was the only person with a master key to the tower stairwells. The “Key Master” led the firefighters up dozens of stories, unlocking doors along the way, and saving many lives. Rodriguez was also the last person to exit the North Tower before its collapse and survived the collapse of the building by jumping under a nearby fire truck. Since 9/11, William has been honored five times at the Whitehouse and around the world. Now William travels the globe, sharing his personal story of bravery, conviction, and patriotism. Come hear his story on:
