American Royalty: John F Kennedy Jr

By Elma B.

Growing up, I watched JFK Jr. Unfortunately, during my teenage years, he lost his life on July 16, 1999 in a plane accident with his wife, Carolyn Bessette and her sister, Lauren Bessette. JFK Jr. is mostly known for being the elder son of JFK, the president of the U.S., and Jackie Kennedy, who also became a symbol of timeless elegance. He lived in the White House for three years before his father was tragically assassinated in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963. Afterwards, JFK Jr. resided on the Upper East Side in Manhattan (New York City).

During his lifetime, JFK Jr. was known as a socialite; he was a pilot, a lawyer, and a magazine publisher. He attended Brown University during which he expressed interest in acting by appearing in several plays (his mother strongly disapproved). He graduated from Brown University in 1983. Subsequently, he traveled to India and spent time at University of Delhi, where he met Mother Teresa. Afterwards, he went on to New York University Law School and graduated in 1989; he was barred in New York and practiced law as a prosecutor at Manhattan's district attorney's office. Also, JFK Jr. co-founded George, a polished politics as lifestyle magazine, which wound up in 2001 after his death. 

Tragically, he died in a plane crash into the Atlantic Ocean off Martha's Vineyard when he was only 38 years old. Certainly, if there is or ever was American royalty: John F. Kennedy Jr. would effortlessly fit the mold. His family left a legacy in the world of American politics and his mother etched her iconic looks into the world of fashion. John F. Kennedy Jr. will remain America's prince. For details of the good-spirited, gorgeous and intelligent son of one of America's most famous presidents and first ladies, please see the photos below.
