Generation 9/11: how this generation is different from all others

We’re kicking off a new series today called “Generation 9/11.” All week long, in honor of the tenth anniversary of 9/11, we’ll be talking with and about young people who were coming of age during the September 11 attacks. We begin our series with Dr. Nassir Ghaemi. Dr. Ghaemi is Director of the Mood Disorders Program at Tufts Medical Center and author of a new book called “A First Rate Madness: Leadership and Mental Illness.” We’ll also be hearing sound from Jillian Suarez and Erin Reeg – young people who are reporters for “Radio Rookies” on our flagship station, WNYC. “Radio Rookies” has its own series on Generation 9/11, that will be airing through this Friday.
