Jacqueline "Jackie" Lee Bouvier Kennedy Onassis (born July 28, 1929 in Southampton on Long Island as Jacqueline Lee Bouvier, † May 19, 1994 in New York City ) was an American journalist and editor . She was the wife of the 35th  US President John F. Kennedy and thus from January 20, 1961 to November 22, 1963, the First Lady of the United States.

The first lady, who became known as "Jackie Kennedy" in the 1960s, attracted attention with her fashionable style and her efforts to promote culture . During her second marriage to the 23 years older Greek shipowner Aristoteles Onassis , from 1968 until his death in 1975, the media gave her the nickname "Jackie O."

Life

Childhood and youth

Her parents, the Irish and French-born New York bankers John Vernou Bouvier III (1891-1957) and Janet Norton Lee (1907-1989), married on July 7, 1928 in the Catholic Church of St. Philomena in East Hampton . The first Bouvier to live in the USA had emigrated from Provence to Philadelphia in 1815 . Norton Lee's grandparents were immigrants from County Cork who settled in New York during the Great Famine in Ireland in the 1840s.

On March 3, 1933, Jacqueline's sister Caroline Lee Bouvier (nickname Lee , after her maternal grandfather James T. Lee) was born. The sisters were raised Roman Catholics . For the first few years the family lived in New York, where Jacqueline started school in 1935, and in East Hampton on Long Island .

The parents divorced in 1940. The mother married twice, her second husband was the twice divorced New York stockbroker Hugh Dudley Auchincloss junior (1897-1976). From this marriage, Jacqueline had two half-siblings, Janet Jennings Auchincloss (1945–1985) and James Lee Auchincloss (* 1947). Through the two first marriages of her stepfather Hugh Auchincloss, she also had three step-siblings, Hugh D. Auchincloss III. (1927–2015), Nina Gore Auchincloss (* 1935) and Thomas Gore Auchincloss (* 1937). In 1947 Jacqueline graduated from school in Farmington, Connecticut . In addition to English, she had learned French, Italian and Spanish.

Education

She began at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie , which she attended until 1949, studying history, literature, art and French. Jacqueline Bouvier received the title Debutante of the Year in 1947/1948 . She lived in France for a year as an exchange student in 1949/1950 and attended the Sorbonne in Paris and the University of Grenoble . She later described this time as the best year of her life. In everyday life she preferred the French pronunciation of her first name. She finished her studies in French literature at George Washington University . She then completed a postgraduate degree in American history at Georgetown University .

After graduating in 1951, she found a job as a photographer and journalist with the Washington Times-Herald newspaper ; she was making $ 42.50 a week. Her job was to ask randomly selected Washington DC residents original questions that would become increasingly political.

First, Bouvier got engaged in December 1951 to the young stockbroker John Husted; in March 1952 the engagement was dissolved.

Marriage to John F. Kennedy

Marriage and family life

John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Bouvier met at a dinner party in May 1951 and became engaged in June 1953. They married on September 12, 1953 in Newport , Rhode Island . They spent the first few years of their marriage in Washington DC

John F. and Jacqueline Kennedy had four children: Arabella (stillborn 1956), Caroline (born November 27, 1957), John F. Kennedy, Jr. (born November 25, 1960 - † July 16, 1999) and Patrick Bouvier Kennedy ( Premature birth, * August 7, 1963, † August 9, 1963).

Ten years of marriage to John F. were not always happy for her. This is evidenced by her numerous, long and very personal letters to the Irish priest Joseph Leonard, which she sent him to Ireland as part of a pastoral correspondence from 1950 until his death in 1964 and which only appeared in 2014.

Jacqueline's relationship with the Kennedy family was difficult because she had other ideals and, among other things, did not think much of the sport often played in the clan. The Kennedy sisters nicknamed her the debutante , Jacqueline complained about the manners and tone of the clan.

First Lady of the United States

Election campaign

In the 1960 election campaign in which John F. Kennedy ran for president, Jacqueline played an active role, limited by her pregnancy. She took part in television and newspaper interviews and recorded radio campaigns in foreign languages. She also advised her husband on how to organize his speeches, based on historical examples.

Finally, Kennedy was able to prevail against his rival Nixon, on January 20, 1961, he took his oath of office as the 35th President of the United States. Jacqueline Kennedy was the third youngest first lady in the USA. Although she was involved in the election campaign, she was initially politically disinterested during the presidency.

Establishment of the White House, cultural engagement

Jacqueline Kennedy's first big project was to change the furnishings in the White House. To this end, she set up a committee in February 1961 . She also reached out to people she knew owned from the White House in previous years and brought out the belongings of former US presidents from the basement. "All people who visit the White House should get a sense of history in it."

On February 14, 1962, she ran "American Television" through the White House. Charles Collingwood of Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS) hosted the tour, which over 50 million Americans followed. The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences awarded Jacqueline Kennedy an Emmy Award based on the success of the show.

Jacqueline Kennedy took care of a cultural painting with intellectual demands. Among other things, she gave French cuisine great influence in the presidential environment. On April 29, 1962, she organized a meeting of 49 Nobel Prize winners in the White House and on January 8, 1963, an exhibition of the Mona Lisa in Washington.

“Kennedy praised the White House dinner as the closest concentration of knowledge and talent since the days when Thomas Jefferson ate there alone. [...] People should know, she [Bouvier] said, that there is something under her pillbox hat too. "

Jacqueline Kennedy attracted public attention mainly through her wardrobe. Their pillbox hats were particularly popular . At the end of 1960 she had already been voted the best-dressed woman in the world . She chose Hollywood designer Oleg Cassini to make her dresses . He admitted her good taste and, above all, the ability to surround herself with competent people. Jacqueline Kennedy was the most photographed of all first ladies, she generated the greatest media interest. Their geometric, simple cut costumes and pillbox hats have been copied by women all over the world.

She had one of her most notable appearances when she and her husband traveled to Charles de Gaulle in France on May 31, 1963 , where she impressed with her knowledge of the French language and her knowledge of French culture. During a lunch with the press on the state visit, John F. Kennedy remarked:

"I'm the man who accompanied Jacqueline Kennedy to Paris - and I enjoyed it."

Assassination of the President

After her youngest child Patrick died two days after birth in early August 1963, Jacqueline Kennedy appeared in public less often. She made her first appearance after Patrick's death in November of the same year: She accompanied her husband to the election campaign in Texas. When Kennedy was assassinated on November 22nd in Dallas, she was sitting in the open convertible on the back seat to his left.

She didn't want to change her blood-splattered costume in the hours that followed. She also wore it when Lyndon B. Johnson was sworn in as the new President of the United States in her presence that same day . She justified this by saying that people should see the blood. At the memorial service on November 25, she lit the Eternal Flame in Arlington National Cemetery .

Jacqueline Kennedy was deeply affected by the death of her husband.

"I feel more cruelly every day what I have lost - I always would have rather lost my life than lost Jack."

"Every day I feel my loss more painful - I would have rather lost my own life than Jack."

- From a letter to Joseph Leonard at the end of 1963

After the attack on JFK

After moving out of the White House two weeks after the funeral, Jacqueline Kennedy bought an apartment on New York's Fifth Avenue and withdrew from the public for a year.

In May 1965 she and Queen Elizabeth II inaugurated an official monument dedicated to John F. Kennedy in Runnymede , England. The memorial covers several acres of land where the Magna Carta was signed by King John in 1215 . The memorial was given to the United States by Great Britain. Two years later, Jacqueline Kennedy attended the christening of the aircraft carrier USS John F. Kennedy (CV-67) in Newport News , Virginia.

In the late 1960s, she helped save New York's historic Grand Central Terminal from demolition by leading a citizens' initiative .

In 1967 - in the middle of the Vietnam War - the Cambodian Prince Sihanouk received Jacqueline Kennedy in Angkor Wat as the US ambassador.

In 1968 Jacqueline Kennedy was elected Woman of the Year together with Věra Čáslavská . The Ladies Home Journal voted her among the 100 most powerful women of the 20th century.

Marriage to Aristotle Onassis

On October 20, 1968, Jacqueline Kennedy married the 23-year-old Greek shipowner and billionaire Aristotle Onassis (1906–1975) on the island of Skorpios . She then left the United States with her children. With her marriage, she lost her right to protection from the Secret Service .

The public reacted irritably when the wedding became known. The Bild newspaper ran the headline that America has lost a saint. One American commentator described the marriage as the worst insult to American men since Pearl Harbor . Friends also criticized Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. She later justified herself as follows: “I could no longer live as a Kennedy widow. It was a break from the oppressive obsession with which the Americans occupied me and my children. "

Jacqueline and Aristotle Onassis rarely saw each other. Onassis has been seen repeatedly in public with Maria Callas . Jacqueline Kennedy lived alternately on Skorpios and in Paris . She spent most of her time traveling and shopping, which led to repeated arguments between the couple. Onassis nicknamed her the Supertanker because of the high cost of her purchases , saying it cost him the same as buying a ship.

Onassis was preparing for divorce when he died on March 15, 1975. At that time, Jacqueline Kennedy was in New York with her children. Their share of the inheritance was severely restricted by a marriage contract. She eventually accepted the $ 27 million offered by Christina Onassis . In return, she waived all claims relating to the Onassis family's property.

1975-1980

In August 1975, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis involuntarily got into the US men's magazine Hustler . The paparazzo Settimio Garritano had photographed her naked on Skorpios. Larry Flynt bought the recordings and released them. From this point on, the media used the term "Jackie O" more and more.

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis lived in New York and Martha's Vineyard with the Belgian-born Maurice Tempelsman (born August 26, 1929), a married industrialist and diamond dealer. He and his family had fled the threat from the Nazi state in 1940. They met in the 1950s when he introduced then Senator John F. Kennedy to South African entrepreneurs in the diamond industry.

From 1976 she worked as an editor at Doubleday publishing house . She appreciated the contributions of African-American authors to American literature and encouraged Dorothy West , her neighbor in Martha's Vineyard and last survivor of the Harlem Renaissance , to complete her novel The Wedding , published in 1995. Dorothy West mentioned Jacqueline Kennedy's encouragement in her book.
