TEANECK, N.J. — She watched the World Trade Center burn. She walked through a city covered in smoke and debris. She sat stranded outside the Port Authority wondering how she would ever get home.

Then, out of nowhere, a stranger in a black SUV appeared.

Twenty-five years later, Teaneck Jewish community member Jennifer R. Glass is still searching for the man she calls her guardian angel.

The story was highlighted in a Wednesday report by The Bergen Record, which chronicled Glass’ decades-long search for the stranger who helped her escape Manhattan after the Sept. 11 attacks.

Glass has shared the same plea online for years: “Help me find the guardian angel who saved my life.”

She remembers only a few details. He was Armenian, had dark hair and was driving a black SUV with New Jersey plates.

On the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, Glass was a commuter on the 167 bus from Teaneck heading into Manhattan when she saw the first plane hit the Twin Towers.

“We were approaching the Lincoln Tunnel at the helix when I saw the plane hit. A fireball came out of the other side of the tower,” she recalled.

Thinking it was a tragic accident, she continued downtown and boarded a subway toward her Wall Street office.

Then the second plane struck.

When Glass emerged from the subway, she said she felt like she had entered a nightmare.

“There were personal effects everywhere: papers, dolls, shoes,” she said. “It was a scene from a horror movie.”

From her office, Glass watched as the towers burned and collapsed. She desperately tried to reach her brother, who worked nearby at Goldman Sachs, but phone lines were jammed.

Eventually, police ordered Glass and her coworkers to evacuate. They walked through thick smoke and falling debris, pressing wet paper towels against their faces.

“We were all shellshocked and covered in white dust,” she said.

Glass made her way toward the Port Authority Bus Terminal hoping to find a ride home, only to find the doors locked.

Then the SUV stopped.

The driver rolled down the window and called out that he was going to New Jersey and had room for four people.

Normally, Glass said, she would never get into a stranger’s car. But that day was different.

“The whole world had just gone crazy,” she said. “No normal rules applied anymore. I was in survival mode.”

The driver took Glass and three others across the George Washington Bridge after it reopened and eventually dropped her at the Teaneck Marriott.

She never learned his name.

“I thanked him several times that day but want to thank him again,” Glass said.

Today, Glass has two children, runs a successful consulting business and remains connected to the Teaneck Jewish community. She has also battled health issues connected to 9/11.

But she still hopes to find the man who helped her escape the chaos.

“I hope he had a family and is living a good life,” she said. “Because what he did made a big difference for all of us that day.”
