Plot

She was a woman of confidence, focus, and passion, and it made her one of the world's greatest sources of inspiration and influence. As devoted wife, loving mother, and revered public figure, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis's enduring legacy lies in the choices she made, the beliefs that made her strong, and the will to survive. She managed heartache and happiness with equal decorum, and handled incredible fame and wealth with reserve, humility, and taste. She drew on a remarkable well of self-knowledge and a sense of purpose to cope with extraordinary public demands and overwhelming private needs.
