Twenty years ago today, the nation was shocked by the tragic news of the death of John F. Kennedy Jr., his wife Carolyn Bessette, and his sister-in-law Lauren Bessette in the crash of their small plane in the waters off Martha’s Vineyard. He was 38 years old.
A dozen years later, a book came out, by JFK Jr’s onetime executive assistant, gatekeeper, and confidante, RoseMarie Terenzio. She told me in a 2012 interview that her five years working with Kennedy at “George” Magazine was like a fairy tale.
