Description:
In As We Remember Her, Carl Sferrazza Anthony, a historian of first ladies, paints the most personal, revealing portrait of Jackie to date - one that shows her not in the shadow of her famous husbands or frozen in the light of flashbulbs, but as she viewed herself over the years and as she was known by those who knew her best. To understand Jackie on her own terms, Anthony conducted exhaustive interviews with an impressive collection of Jackie's friends, family members, and colleagues, many of whom speak here about her publicly for the first time, and drew from rarely published but quite revealing autobiographical accounts. Intimate photographs, most of which are previously unpublished, offer a further glimpse into the life of this most private woman. Those who spoke about Jackie for this book include President and Mrs. Clinton, Senator Edward Kennedy, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, Joan Kennedy, Lady Bird Johnson, Senator John Glenn, Pamela Harriman, Kitty Carlisle Hart, Gloria Steinem, Yusha Auchincloss, Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr., John Kenneth Galbraith, Robert McNamara, Ted Sorenson, Pierre Salinger, Rose Styron, Senator Claiborne Pell, and George Plimpton. And from previously sealed Kennedy Library Oral Histories, we hear from her mother, Janet Auchincloss, and lifetime confidante, Nancy Tuckerman, among others. Familiar names in history, from Princess Grace to Nikita Khrushchev, weigh in as well. These voices remember fondly Jackie's extraordinary education and intellect - which encompassed a knowledge not only of poetry and diplomacy but of architecture and Egyptology - and her quietly hard-won achievements. They recall her personal evolution as well, from her youth as a talented, ambitious writer to her years in the White House, when she diligently shaped a modern view of American culture, to her final years as editor, matriarch, and citizen of the world.
