—Ann Curry Returns With a 2nd Season of Unforgettable Stories—

Join Ann Back-scratch for a new season of dramatic reunions of people whose lives crossed at pivotal moments. View history through their optics and hear stories of heroism, hope and the forging of unbreakable bonds.

"We knew these stories would be powerful, but we didn't know they would resonate with viewers every bit much as they have," said Curry."Several times a calendar week at present, wherever I go, people stop me to say they've been touched past these stories. There is something about seeing others rise when faced with challenges that wake you lot up to what is possible in you. The almost common comment I get is, 'This is what we demand to hear now.'"

This season, Nosotros'LL MEET Again travels across the country and around the globe, once once more helping people find that special someone whose actions changed the course of their lives, searching for clues in spousal relationship records and war and immigration documents, and combing archives to reunite those separated by time and distance.

Featured stories include:

• A Cuban-American who escaped during the 1980 Mariel Boatlift and never forgot the brave skipper who piloted him to a new life in the U.S.
• A woman looking for the best friend whose family shielded her during the smashing Alaskan earthquake of 1964
• Two Vietnam veterans, one longing to reconnect with the helicopter airplane pilot who rescued him from enemy fire, the other wanting to thank the doctor who saved his leg
