Remembering JFK Jr. 20 years later
The rambunctious baby boy in the White House charmed the nation, until tragedy abruptly changed the course of John F. Kennedy Jr.'s life forever. Twenty years after his own sudden death in an airplane crash, the editors at People bring you the special edition "John F. Kennedy Jr: An American Life." Celebrate the life, loves and passions of the son of JFK and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, beginning with "A Life in Pictures," his energetic experience as the country's "First Toddler," and as "America's Prince" faces a tragedy he is still too young to fully understand. Then, follow in his footsteps as "The Son Rises," his attempts to be "Just A Guy Named John," and eventually becomes the "Man of the World" he was destined to be and, understandably, a "Most Eligible Bachelor." Watch as he evolves into a successful magazine editor in "Editor in Chief," with dreams of a future in politics, and falls in love in "Finding the One." Then, revisit the tragic moment of "Dreams Dashed" when a plane piloted by him went down, taking his life and those of his wife Carolyn and her sister Lauren Bessette. Last, consider the legacy that lasts in "A Special Bond" he shared with his sister, Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg.
