Private Notes
Kennedy leads the charge in a technologically advancing world, yet is restricted by personal obstacles, national crises and international challenges.
Enormously gifted and flawed President John F. Kennedy wrestles with some of the most dangerous times in American history. The bay of Pigs Invasion and the Cuban Missile Crisis lead the world perilously close to nuclear war.
More than forty years after his assassination, John F. Kennedy remains a towering figure in American life and politics. From his inaugural speeches and his meeting with the Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev to the Cuban missile crisis and the standoff over integration at the University of Mississippi, he presided over a nation committed to democratic leadership but threatened by external forces and unresolved divisions at home. JFK: A Presidency Revealed shows that like the nation he served, he was a flawed giant. This special presentation traces key events in his life and career. Family members, associates, and historians offer personal and compelling glimpses into the life of this influential President.
