TRIANGLE: Remembering the Fire

Co-Sponsored by The League of Women Voters of Huntington, The League of Women Voters of East Nassau, and LIWA. Panel Discussion with Producer MICHAEL HIRSCH and others.

On March 25, 1911, a catastrophic fire broke out at the Triangle Waist Company in New York City. Trapped in­side the upper floors of a ten-story building, 146 workers – mostly young immigrant women and teenage girls – were burned alive or forced to jump to their deaths to escape an inferno that consumed the factory in just 18 min­utes. Emmy-winning filmmakers Marc Levin and Daphne Pinkerson bring the victims’ stories to life through never-before-seen photographs and heartfelt accounts by descendants of those who were there that day. http://www.cinemaartscentre.org/event/triangle-remembering-the-fire/
