Lorie Van Auken
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lorie Van Auken is a 9/11 widow, one of the "Jersey Girls". Her husband, Kenneth Van Auken, was a bond trader at Cantor Fitzgerald L.P., and worked on the 105th floor of WTC Tower One. Along with three other 9/11 New Jersey widows (Kristen Breitweiser, Mindy Kleinberg and Patty Casazza), Lorie worked to form the 9/11 Commission, despite attempts by The White House to block it.
After the release of the 9/11 Commission Report, Lorie and the other Jersey Girls held a series of press conferences which were highly critical of the Commission. She accused the commissioners of ignoring key evidence which would have demonstrated incompetence in the conduct of government officials, both before and on 9/11.
