The following list of names is made available in response to the many
inquiries the Kheel Center receives concerning the identity of people involved in the Triangle Shirtwaist Company Fire. The names of the dead
and wounded were taken mostly from issues of the New York Times (NYT), published in the few days following the tragedy, and from
Leon Steins book Triangle Fire.
The Kheel Center does not have any other information regarding the
people listed below. We do encourage you to offer updates or corrections about victims and survivors to help us keep this list as current as possible.
Thank you.
