The economic recession in 2001, combined with the dramatic reduction in travel and tourism following the tragic events of September 11, 2001, affected AWI just as it was outgrowing its post-BFI-acquisition growing pains. Third quarter net income in 2001 was $.13 a share, as opposed to $.27 per share in the same quarter in 2000. Shortly after these results were announced, Larry Henk, AWI's president and COO resigned, citing personal reasons. Van Weelden became president, in addition to his roles as Chairman and CEO. Yet not all the news was bad. Despite the sagging economy and the effects of September 11, AWI generated an impressive $480 million of free cash flow and reduced its debt by $389 million that same year.

In the wake of the attacks on New York City and Washington D.C. on September 11, 2001, many figures in the entertainment community stepped forward to offer their talents to raise money towards relief efforts for the victims and their survivors. On October 20, 2001, some of the biggest names in popular music appeared at New York's Madison Square Garden in a special marathon concert to raise funds, and to pay tribute to the firefighters and police officers who gave their strength, their courage, and in some cases their lives to help the victims of this tragedy.
