"Titanic Connections and Hiring Practices: The Story of a Missing Sub Pilot"

The pilot of the submersible that has gone missing on a quest to take tourists to see the Titanic at the bottom of the ocean has a personal connection to two victims of the doomed shipwreck. Records show that OceanGate CEO and pilot Stockton Rush's wife, Wendy Rush, is a descendant of a famous elderly couple who died during the 1912 incident. The couple, Ida and Isidor Straus, were among first-class passengers aboard the Titanic on its maiden voyage.
