Hamilton, Lee Templin, 1950-

In late 2002, Lee H. Hamilton was appointed Vice Chair of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks upon the United States, also known as the 9/11 Commission, an independent, bipartisan commission created by congressional legislation. It was chartered to prepare a full and complete account of the circumstances surrounding the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, including American preparedness and the immediate responses to the terrorist strikes. The Commission was also mandated to provide recommendations designed to guard against future attacks. The collection assembled by Hamilton during the course of the 9/11 Commission's work documents the investigation process and creation of the final report.
