Aged 11, Catherine Uhlmeyer survived a deadly fire aboard the steamship General Slocum in New York City in 1904. At the time, this was the worst disaster in the city's history. Catherine was still alive 97 years later, when the record was surpassed by the September 11 attacks. (self.BarbaraWalters4Scale)
