Tania Head claimed to be a survivor of the 9/11 attacks, even becoming president of the World Trade Centre Survivors' Network. The New York Times figured out in 2007 that her story was entirely fabricated — in fact, she was not in New York City at the time of the attack, but in her native Barcelona. Her false claims included being engaged with a 9/11 victim as well as working for Merrill Lynch and graduating from Harvard and Stanford. The Woman Who Wasn't There uses interviews of Head before and after the reveal of her scandal.
