Jackie and the Mona Lisa
Jackie Kennedy loved the arts. And America loved Jackie Kennedy. The first lady knew she had the country's attention—what would she do with it? Encourage Americans to appreciate art, of course! She turned the White House into a historical site filled with some of America's most treasured artifacts and pieces of art. She brought Shakespearean theater to the White House and ballerinas to the South Lawn. And most epically, she brought the Mona Lisa to the states (much to the chagrin of many Parisians) to encourage Americans to visit museums—and it worked! An inspiring story about one of the nation's most influential first ladies.
