On Feb. 14, 1962, first lady Jacqueline Kennedy gave the first broadcast tour of the White House, offering the public a glimpse of the historic home that had just undergone a $2 million restoration project. In the CBS News Special with CBS News reporter Charles Collingwood, Kennedy narrated a brief history of the White House, taking audiences from the home’s original construction that started in 1792 through its various iterations, rebuilds and former inhabitants. Most estimates show that the hour-long broadcast was viewed by 80 million people. Kennedy also won an Emmy for her performance in the special.

Jacqueline was so poised and soft spoken. Yet she was highly opinionated and very intelligent. Often working directly with John and sitting in on important meetings. Now that I've listened to her tapes, I have an even deeper respect. She was an amazing woman.

She was a victem of men, HUmiliated and degrated in front of the entire World. Her husband sleeping with women and one of the most famous right in the very building she slept. Just like now when women are still treated like they dont exist(trans issue) Jackie was shamefully mistreated and suffered greatly. Its sad when people ignore her real life and act like she had such a wonderful life. She didnt.

@@lennyvelez5929 After the fact, we now know how incredible she actually was. It was a different time. Not going to judge the past, but the role of the first lady was to stay behind the shadows and not participate. She was trained to act "lady-like" and poised, in the way she walked and talked. Now reading her diaries and monologues, many of us undestimated her brilliance. There is no doubt in my mind she wishes her husband was not assassinated.

She won an honorary Emmy for this and her restoration project helped establish the White House as a symbol of American history and transformed it into a museum. Jackie Kennedy was a very intelligent and gracious first lady. The book Jacqueline Kennedy and the Architecture of First Lady Diplomacy (America and Global Affairs) explores her significant role as a cultural ambassador and her impact on U.S. foreign relations.

Jackie Kennedy definitely lived a good and very influential life, but I don’t think we can call it beautiful. JFK reportedly only married her for politics and didn’t truly love her. He had numerous extramarital affairs, allegedly told one of his mistresses that he was planning to leave his wife for her, witnessed a portion of his head being blown off in front of her, held pieces of his brain together, and lost their infant son a couple of months before. Her second marriage was mainly for financial security.

The most tragic deaths she experienced was her husband JFK, her stillborn daughter (I don’t know her name off the top of my head) and her son Patrick. If she had still been alive in July 1999 she would have experienced the loss of her son John Kennedy Jr. after he died in a plane crash. I understand how you feel. She had a lot of love and support over the years. She sounded so wonderful here, I’m sorry to hear what she went through.

In 1962 hardly anyone owned a color TV. Only the richest of the rich. In order to reach the masses the program had to be presented in B/W. Back then we had grown up on radio so had vivid imaginations and the ability to see descriptive imagery in our mind's eye, unlike most of today's population who can't function without a phone in their hands and constant external stimulation.

I can still remember when JFK was assassinated November 22 , 1963. I was only 6 years old and did not fully understand what had happened. I do remember that it was a time of sorrow with people crying and remember the non stop coverage on TV. Even though I was only 6 I remember the funeral procession and little JFK Jr Saluting his dad , he was only three years old and he turned 3 the day of his father funeral. It is something that everybody that was alive at that time will remember. Just like those of us that were alive when the world trade centers were attacked September 11, 2001.. I remember every detail about how I found out about it , where I was and what I was doing. I remember the shock and being stunned and was trying to comprehend the horror. Jackie Kennedy was a very gracious lady.

She's one of my favorite first ladies. She was heavily slept on with people thinking she was all looks. She had a very fine and extensive education growing up, was a heavy reader and her parents exposed her to some of the best places and most famous people in Europe and Asia before she even met John. A real treasure of a woman and knowledge. I'm glad she was heavily filmed to get her knowledge out on film. John used her as his buffer with world leaders not only because of her graciousness, but because she had grown up around powerful people and had an ease with them.

If my memory serves me correct, all three networks carried this special, with CBS and NBC simulcasting it and ABC showing it a few days later, with the Kennedys insisting that one of the three networks carry it on a delayed basis a few days later so those who missed the first showing could catch a repeat a few nights later.

What strikes me is that the tone and cadence of her voice are so much like her first cousin, little Edith Beale. It's such a haunting sound and a reminder that sometimes people from the very same family that start out with the same exact history can end up in such completely opposite. When she was younger, Edith Bealle was considered one of the most beautiful and eligible debutants of her day. Somehow, listening and watching Jacqueline Kennedy and this video make her story even more haunting and pathetic. Of course, in their own ways, they both suffered so very much, just in different ways. But I think there can be no doubt that at some point, Edith had a mental breakdown. It's really weird because they both seem so very fragile to me in their own ways. But somehow, Jackie found a way to persevere, but edith did not.

So impressive to see the upholstery room, what a great idea to be sure of the quality and keep an eye on the treasures. I wonder what that room is used for today? It would sure be refreshing to have a First Lady someday who takes up an interest in our history as Jackie did.

Trans Atlantic accent, common among upper class folks and the well educated of the first half of the 20th century. It's elegant and timeless.

What a revelation to learn that the entire interior of the White House was gutted to bring structural integrity to the structure during Truman's presidency. Seeing that steel skeleton inside the outer walls is a great lesson in American history. The preface narrated by Jackie Kennedy was a wonderful touch that can still inspire our deeper appreciation for this great symbol of our national government.

I agree completely. Had CBS switched to color when JFK was still President like they should have, we'd be able to see color news coverage of his assassination and funeral.

Jacqueline was elegant, graceful and amicable for being an icon of the ladies. Moreover she created the case for women In perusing independence and happiness. She presented incomparable courage and strength after the assassination ❤ she was long missing as a legendary figure ❤

Thank you for sharing this. This is a great insight into how intelligent Jacqueline was. Besides being fluent in multiple languages, she really understood and enjoyed history. I am a fan of hers because she has such style, she knew how to demonstrate her intelligence without being intimidated, and she came into her own after Ari Onassis’s death.
