1944- 1947 Jacqueline studied in Miss Porter's school, 1947- 1948 studied in Vasa College, 1949 studied in Paris University,195/kloc-0.
Jacqueline's first job was as a photojournalist for The Washington Herald, interviewing people around Washington, D.C. and taking photos for them. To this end, she met a new political star at that time, Democratic Massachusetts Senator John Kennedy.
2. The career of the first lady 1960 John F. Kennedy defeated Nixon by a few votes and became the 35th president of the United States. 196 1, Jacqueline became the youngest first lady in American history. She also contributed to the election campaign and even explained the composition of the parliament to the grocery store owner. She was shocked when she visited West Virginia. She has never seen such poverty. Later, when the White House needed to be renovated, she suggested buying products from poor local companies to help these places.
She doesn't like the name "First Lady" and thinks it looks like the name of a horse. Although all the details of her life will be exposed to the media and the public, she hopes to protect her children from leading a normal life. She is not allowed to take pictures of the children, but when she goes out, Kennedy will ask the White House photographer to take pictures of them.
Jacqueline can speak French, Spanish and Italian fluently. She likes French food and fashion, and often chooses French cooking when arranging state banquets at the White House. But as the first lady, she was afraid that wearing French fashion would be criticized as unpatriotic, so she asked an American tailor to design and make clothes for her in imitation of French style. She has become a fashion icon at home and abroad. During her visit to France, she talked with Charles de Gaulle in French and was warmly welcomed by the French.
Jacqueline's first major task is to restore the original appearance of the White House. When President Eisenhower's soon-to-be-abdicated wife showed her around the White House, she was frustrated that there were replica furniture with no sense of history everywhere. She believes that the White House represents the country and should restore its historical image. She asked to set up an art committee to start this work, looking for antique furniture and historical works of art everywhere, and even writing letters to people who designed the White House. After the restoration work was completed, on February 4th, 1962, she came forward to lead the TV host of CBS to shoot a special TV program and visit the whole White House.
Many social activities hosted by Jacqueline have made the President and his wife the focus of domestic cultural circles. For the first time in American history, they paid so much attention to music, art and culture. Every reception by Jacqueline makes every guest who comes to the White House for a state banquet feel like a wonderful evening. Jacqueline tore down the original U-shaped dining table and changed it into a round table for eight people. During the talks between the President of the United States and Khrushchev of the former Soviet Union in Vienna, Jacqueline and Khrushchev left a deep impression on him. Although the presidential negotiations ended in failure, Khrushchev admired the wife of the American president.
For the above reasons, Jacqueline was regarded as a recognized fashion leader in the eyes of American women in the 1960s. [Edit this paragraph] 3. Kennedy assassination 1963. In August, her youngest son Patrick died, and Jacqueline almost never appeared in public again. 10 In October, Kennedy asked her to go to Texas with him to help campaign. 1October, 1963,165438+1October 22nd, when Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, she was sitting in the car beside him.
Jacqueline's courage is admired all over the world. She held hands with two children and presided over Kennedy's funeral. She and her daughter knelt down in front of the coffin of the Capitol, followed the hearse all the way from the White House to St. Matthews Church, and finally lit the Changming torch in front of her husband's grave in Arlington Cemetery. The London Evening News praised her: "Jacqueline Kennedy has given Americans ... what they lack most is the majesty of the royal family". However, in recent years, studies have pointed out that Jacqueline's performance at Kennedy's funeral was actually a well-planned performance, with the purpose of showing her charm and influence to the public as the first lady for the last time. It is said that Jacqueline was very calm and rational after Kennedy's assassination.
A week after Kennedy's death, Jacqueline accepted an exclusive interview with a reporter from Life magazine. She compared Kennedy's days in the White House to King Arthur's mysterious knight of the Round Table, and said that Kennedy liked the musicals on Broadway. She said, "Kennedy has become a myth now, but he would rather be a person."
After that, she didn't appear in public for a year. Her daughter once told the school teacher that her mother had been in Lacrimosa. Jacqueline once wanted to die, but she still wanted to live for her children. [Edit this paragraph] 4. Second Marriage1In July, 968, Kennedy's younger brother, presidential candidate Robert Kennedy, was assassinated. Jacqueline believes that the Kennedy family has become the target of assassination. In order to protect her children, she decided to leave America. On June 20th, 1968, she married Aristotle onassis, the Greek ship king, and onassis had enough money and power to protect her. Therefore, O 'Narcisse left his lover, the opera singer Maria Callas, and Jacqueline lost the privilege of the American authorities to protect her.
Although married, we seldom get together after marriage. Onassis gets along well with Jacqueline's children, but Jacqueline doesn't get along with onassis's daughter, so she often goes out to travel and shop. 1975 March 15 onassis filled out a divorce agreement before she died, when Jacqueline and her children were in new york. According to the prenuptial agreement, Jacqueline failed to get onassis's inheritance. His daughter exchanged $35 million for Jacqueline's statement that she gave up all her inheritance.
Since then, Jacqueline has been living in new york, working as the editor of Biweekly, and living with a Belgian-born married diamond dealer and entrepreneur. In the 1960s, he led opposition to the demolition of New York Central Railway Station, and in the 1980s, he led opposition to the construction of skyscrapers near Central Park.
She was diagnosed with lymphoadenocarcinoma in 1994 and died in her apartment on Fifth Avenue on the night of May 10: 15 at the age of 64.
On may 23, her funeral was broadcast live to the whole country, although she hoped that the funeral would be limited to relatives. She was buried next to her late husband Kennedy in Arlington Cemetery. President Clinton delivered a written speech, and her two children presented flowers to her, marking the end of an era in America.
