On this episode of Our American Stories, when the Joplin tornado struck in 2011, entire neighborhoods disappeared in minutes. Among the debris were family photographs, wedding portraits, baby pictures, graduation snapshots, carried by the wind and dropped miles from home. Thad Beeler began collecting the photos he found and searching for the people in them. What started as a small act of kindness became a mission to return memories that the storm had nearly taken forever. Beeler joins us to tell the story.
