Jacqueline Donovan was 34 and lived in Lynbrook, New York (Born: Brooklyn, New York). She worked as a secretary for Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. on the 89th floor in the South Tower of the World Trade Center. On September 11th 2001, United Airlines Flight 175 crashed into the southern facade of South Tower of the World Trade Center at 9:03am, impacting between the 77th and 85th floors.
I worked with Jackie at KBW. I was in IT, and our department was small enough so that all of us served as helpdesk at some point, so I dealt with her a lot. It was always nice because she was talkative and appreciated our work.
ReplyDeleteShe was an interesting and unique choice for an investment bank -- she had a brand of NY tough such that you could just as easily imagine her in a biker bar (as a bartender, or maybe even a biker). She fit in well, though, all the executives loved her and she was valued both for her work and her personality.
