Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis

A woman who brought a refined brilliance to 20th-century American pop culture and politics as the wife of JFK. With exceptional fashion sense, she breathed the aura of art and culture into the White House and led its interior restoration project. Her composed demeanor in a blood-stained pink suit during her husband's assassination became a symbol of national grief and resilience. Later remarrying Greek shipping magnate Onassis, she spent her later years building an independent career as a book editor in New York as an immortal icon.
