How is Jackie Kennedy Onassis remembered?

Answer 1

She is remembered for being an enigma in the public spotlight. Though she set fashion trends, edited over 100 books, and raised the two sole surviving children of President Kennedy, she remained a mystery to the press, as she was very private in what she shared with the public. She was a patron of art, culture and historical preservation throughout New York City. She was the companion of Maurice Templeman, and still beloved by so many who really didn't know too much of her.
