See Caroline Kennedy's Life in Pictures

You don't need us to tell you that there's something special about American royalty Caroline Kennedy. Let's start with her origin story, the daughter of the legendary John F. Kennedy and inimitable Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. When she was born, her father was a senator from Massachusetts; by the time she was three, the family was living in the White House. She famously endured an almost unimaginable series of family tragedies — an assassination, and another, her mother's death at just 64, and the early death of her younger brother, John F. Kennedy Jr. And yet — and yet. Caroline forged a life of meaning, value, and joy, becoming a storied author, attorney and ambassador.
