Mitch Rosen (1958 - present) was born in Brooklyn, New York. At the age of twenty-one he was hired by the Port Authority police department. Mitch was stationed at the Port Authority bus terminal on 42nd Street and 8th Avenue in New York city in the early 1980s. Mitch quickly adapted to his new work environment. Daily intervention with criminals, prostitutes, drug dealers and the homeless made this job very demanding. Mitch's first ten years on the job provided him with a lifetime of stories. From a nude man running down 42nd Street attacking people with a machete. To a young women trying to get Mitch's attention by pulling her glass eye out of the socket. Mitch transferred to the World Trade Center in the early 1990s. He experienced the first terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in 1993. Which resulted in six deaths, due a van filled with explosives in the below ground parking lot. In the late 1990s Mitch took an assignment at the George Washington bridge where he remained until his retirement in 2006, due to a career ending injury. On 9/11 Mitch responded to the World Trade Center from the George Washington Bridge to assist. He remained at ground zero for a few weeks doing recovery. At a young age Mitch began drawing using color pencil. Currently, Mitch's color pencil art work is available in a few art galleries in Rockland County NY. In 2018 Mitch created a piece entitled, "The Search for Heroes" to honor the first responders. This piece is now apart of the World Trade Center Memorial Museum's permanent collection.
