NEW YORK (AP) -- Actor and New Yorker Billy Crystal is going to help build the Sept. 11 memorial.
Crystal was named Thursday to the board of directors of the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, the foundation raising money to build the memorial to the 2001 terrorist attacks.
Crystal is the star of films including ``When Harry Met Sally ...'' and ``Analyze This.'' He participated in a benefit concert for the city a month after the terror attacks. He also has co-hosted eight Comic Relief telethons on HBO to raise money for the homeless.
The foundation has raised more than $350 million privately to build the memorial.
Crystal becomes the 45th member of the board, joining ``Analyze This'' co-star Robert De Niro. |
