Remembering America's Worst Circus Disaster 20 Years On
Hartford recalls the 1944 Ringling Brothers fire at the Hartford fairgrounds in which 168 died and 509 were injured. Survivors, including Rose Dunn and her children, recount the terror, exits blocked by debris, and a long quest to identify a missing girl known as Little Miss 1565. The tragedy spurred tougher fire safety rules and ended Ringling under canvas after 1956.
