Jacqueline Lee Kennedy Onassis (July 28, 1929 - May 19, 1994) was an American writer, editor, photographer and socialite who became the first lady of the United States as the wife of President John F. Kennedy. During her lifetime, Jacqueline Kennedy was considered an international fashion icon. Her ensemble of a pink Chanel suit and matching pillbox hat that she wore in Dallas, Texas, when the president was assassinated on November 22, 1963, became a symbol of her husband's death. Even after his death, she became one of the most popular and recognizable first ladies in American history, and in 1999 she was ranked among the most admired men and women of the 20th century.
Jackie was born in 1929 in Southampton, New York, to John Vernou Bouvier III, a stockbroker on Wall Street, and his wife, Janet Lee Bouvier. In 1951, she graduated from George Washington University with a degree in French literature and worked for the Washington Times-Herald as a photographer. The following year, she met John Kennedy, then a member of Congress, at a dinner in Washington. He was elected to the Senate the same year and the couple married on September 12, 1953 in Newport, Rhode Island. They had four children, two of whom died in infancy. After her husband's election to the presidency in 1960, Jacqueline is known for her high-profile restoration of the White House and emphasis on arts and culture, as well as her style. At 31, she was the third youngest First Lady of the United States when her husband was inaugurated President.
After her husband's assassination and funeral, Jacqueline Kennedy and her children largely withdrew from the public eye. In 1968, she married Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis. After Onassis' death in 1975, she made a career as a book editor in New York. She died in 1994.
