Жаклин Бувье Кеннеди Онассис родилась в 1929 году в Саутгемптоне, штат Нью-Йорк и была женой 35-го президента США Джона Ф. Кеннеди и первой леди США с 1961 года до его убийства в 1963 году. В детстве она была ярким, любопытным и иногда озорным ребенком. Один из учителей начальной школы описал ее как "милого ребенка, очень красивую девочку, очень умную, очень артистичную и полную дьявольских импульсов".

Детство Онассис было привилегированным. Она брала уроки балета в Метрополитен-опера и училась французскому с репетиторами начиная с 12 лет. Как и ее мать, Онассис любила верховую езду и была хорошей наездницей. В 1940 году в возрасте 11 лет она выиграла национальный конкурс юниорского мастерства верховой езды. На этих архивных фотографиях изображена очень юная Жаклин Бувье, когда она была ребенком.
