    C-SPAN FIRST LADIES/JACQUELINE KENNEDY May 09, 2014 9:56 a.m. ET (BEGIN VIDEO CLIP) JACQUELINE KENNEDY: And I think every first lady should do something in this position to help the things she cares about. I just think that everything in the White House should be the best -- the entertainment that's given here. The art of children is the same the world over. And so, of course, is our feeling for children. I think it is good in a world where there's quite enough to divide people, that we should cherish the language and emotion that unite us all. (END VIDEO CLIP) SUSAN SWAIN: Jacqueline Kennedy's 1,000 days as first lady were defined by images -- political spouse, young mother, fashion icon, advocate for the arts. As television came of age, it was ultimately the tragic images of President Kennedy's assassination and funeral that cemented Jacqueline Kennedy in the public consciousness. Good evening and welcome to C-SPAN's series "First Ladies: Influence and Image.” Tonight, we'll tell you the story of the wife of the 35th president of the United States, named Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy. And we have two guests at the table for the next two hours to tell you more about her life story. Michael Beschloss, presidential historian, author of many books on the presidency, and has a special focus over the years on the Cold War era and the Kennedy administration. Thanks for being here. MICHAEL BESCHLOSS: Pleasure. SWAIN: Barbara Perry is a UVA political scientist and as part of the "Modern First Ladies" series at the University of Kansas has written a Jacqueline Kennedy biography.

So far, reports on the contents of the interview say nothing about her rumored affair with actor William Holden, but they do give us a glimpse of a sassier Jackie. But I never put much thought into the First Lady being an asset to negotiations or that she intimately knew so many statesmen.

  • France Invades the 1961 White House
    France Invades the 1961 White House Christopher Early East Carolina University Visual Arts and Design Faculty Mentor Hunt McKinnon East Carolina University Throughout its history, America‟s White House has undergone many changes through its many administrations. While a select few presidents worked to improve it, most others merely neglected it. No one, however, worked harder in restoring the White House interior than Jacqueline Kennedy, wife of President John F. Kennedy, who occupied the Executive Mansion from January 1961 until November 1963. Soon after Kennedy‟s election to the presidency in November 1960, a pregnant Jacqueline Kennedy visited the White House, as per protocol, and was given a tour of her soon-to-be-home by the outgoing First Lady, Mamie Eisenhower. “Jackie‟s first visit to the White House was her coming-out party as the next first lady.” 1 After viewing the condition of the White House, Mrs. Kennedy was appalled by its drab furniture and design. She was shocked that the White House interior, that of America‟s preeminent home, had been so woefully decorated. To her, it was nothing short of a national disgrace. Soon after taking up residence in the White House, both the President and his First Lady were struck by how depressing, drab, and tasteless the home appeared. Furniture in rooms did not match with each other, nor did paintings adorning the walls. There were no unifying themes in individual rooms or the mansion as a whole. “To her dismay she found the upstairs family quarters decorated with what she called „early Statler‟; it was so cheerless and undistinguished it wasn‟t even worthy of a second-class hotel.

  • Women Surrealists: Sexuality, Fetish, Femininity and Female Surrealism
    WOMEN SURREALISTS: SEXUALITY, FETISH, FEMININITY AND FEMALE SURREALISM BY SABINA DANIELA STENT A Thesis Submitted to THE UNIVERSITY OF BIRMINGHAM for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Modern Languages School of Languages, Cultures, Art History and Music The University of Birmingham September 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT The objective of this thesis is to challenge the patriarchal traditions of Surrealism by examining the topic from the perspective of its women practitioners. Unlike past research, which often focuses on the biographical details of women artists, this thesis provides a case study of a select group of women Surrealists – chosen for the variety of their artistic practice and creativity – based on the close textual analysis of selected works. Specifically, this study will deal with names that are familiar (Lee Miller, Meret Oppenheim, Frida Kahlo), marginal (Elsa Schiaparelli) or simply ignored or dismissed within existing critical analyses (Alice Rahon). The focus of individual chapters will range from photography and sculpture to fashion, alchemy and folklore. By exploring subjects neglected in much orthodox male Surrealist practice, it will become evident that the women artists discussed here created their own form of Surrealism, one that was respectful and loyal to the movement’s founding principles even while it playfully and provocatively transformed them.

  • Jackie Onassis Dies Shy Glamour Characterized Ex-First Lady by Robert D
    Jackie Onassis dies Shy glamour characterized ex-first lady By Robert D. McFadden The New York Times NEW YORK — Jiequeline Kennedy Onassis, the widow of President John F. Kenfiedy and of the Greek shipping magnate Aris- totle Onassis, died of a form of cancer of the lymphatic system Thursday at her apartment. She was 64 years old. Onassis, who had enjoyed ro- bust good health nearly all her life, began being treated for non-Hodg- kin's lymphoma in early January and had been undergoing chemo- therapy and other treatments in recent months while continuing her work as a book editor and her social, family and other personal routines. But the disease, which attacks Daily News lymph nodes in the neck, armpits and groin, which are a major com- ponent of the body's immune sys- FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1994 tem, grew progressively worse. Onassis entered the New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center for the last time on Monday, but returned to her Fifth Avenue apartment on Wednesday after her doctors said there was no more they could do. In recent years Onassis had lived quietly but not in seclusion, working at Doubleday; joining ef- forts to preserve historic New York buildings; spending time with her son, daughter and grand- children; jogging in Central Park; getting away to her estates in New Jersey, at Hyannis, Mass., and on Martha's Vineyard, and going about town with Maurice Tern- pelsman, a financier who had be- come her closest companion.

  • E Onassis Marriage and the Hellenization of an American Icon
    Jackie the Greek: e Onassis Marriage and the Hellenization of an American Icon David Wills | Neograeca Bohemica | 20 | 2020 | 9–23 | Abstract A 1968 series of satirical audio sketches concerning the marriage and lifestyle of Aristotle Onassis and Jacqueline Kennedy provides an opportunity to re- -examine the reputation of this famous couple. ese recordings connect with well-known negative assumptions – both in the contemporaneous media and in the previously restricted governmental fi les from the British National Archives used here – about Kennedy’s cynicism and Onassis’ Greek heritage. It will also be argued here that Jackie’s attempts to engage with Greece, especially Modern Greece, were a deliberate choice as part of her new identity, but in reality mere- ly contributed to her damaged image. Keywords Onassis, Hellenism, American satire, Skorpios, Greek shipowners 10 | David Wills In the 1960s Jacqueline Bouvier made the journey from American idol to fallen Greek goddess. Already in her time as First Lady, she had introduced Ancient Greek culture to JFK, leading to the adoption of classical themes in Presidential rhetoric and antique gowns at White House balls. Her subsequent marriage to Aristotle Onassis enabled her to become part of Modern Greece too. But al- though Jackie delighted in exploring her adopted country’s lifestyle, becoming a Modern Greek had its pitfalls as well as practical benefi ts. It caused widespread damage to her reputation amongst the American media and public. is was not merely because of her marriage to a wealthy, older man. It was also be- cause being a Modern Greek did not have the same perceived cultural value as ‘Ancient’.

    1 15th EBHA Annual Conference “Business, Finance and the State in 20th Century: European Comparisons in Historical Perspective, Crises and Transformation” Athens, 24-26 August 2011 Mr Onassis and Game Theory Gelina Harlaftis Ionian University Draft paper “I never gamble, it doesn‟t amuse me” said Onassis to the reporters. “ I don‟t oppose it. I understand it. My whole life has been a terrific gamble”.1 Onassis was a great player in a game of “global chess” as it unraveled in a highly publicized case that stunned the world in the 1950s. This paper examines the confrontation of Aristotle Onassis with the American government in the 1950s. The ultimate goal is to examine the strategies used by weatlthy international family businesses to confront governments in host countries. The history of attacking entrepreneurial elites of foreign origin has been a repetitive story in international business.2 During the 1940s and 1950s a large number of Greek shipowners previously based in London had transferred their base to New York, at the time which was increasingly becoming a world maritime centre. In the post-WWII the United States, at the time the world‟s leading power was not a maritime nation and shipping under the American flag cost quite highly. In this way, it did not fill the oceans with American flag ships but promoted the adoption of flags of convenience from main traditional European shipowners from maritime countries. The flags of convenience, then the PanHoLib fleet -of Panama, Honduras and Liberia-, were cheap flags that provided cheap sea transport.3 In the 1940s and 1950s it was the Greeks that exploited such an 1 New York Times, 20 June 1958.
