The John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum opened a special new installation featuring Freedom 7, the iconic space capsule that U.S. Navy Commander

Alan B. Shepard Jr. piloted on the first American-manned spaceflight. Celebrating American ingenuity and determination, the new exhibit opened on September 12, the 50th anniversary of President Kennedy’s speech at Rice University, where he so

eloquently championed America’s manned space efforts:

“We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the

other things, not because they are easy, but because they are

hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure

the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is

one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to

postpone, and one which we intend to win.”

Joined on September 12 by three students from Pinkerton

Academy, the alma mater of astronaut Alan B. Shepard Jr.,

Kennedy Library Director Tom Putnam unveiled Freedom 7,

stating, “In bringing the Freedom 7 space capsule to our

Museum, the Kennedy Library hopes to inspire a new

generation of Americans to use science and technology

for the betterment of our humankind.”

Freedom 7 had been on display at the U.S. Naval

Academy in Annapolis, MD since 1998, on loan from the

Smithsonian Air and Space Museum. At the request of

Caroline Kennedy, Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus,

the U.S. Naval Academy, and the National Air and Space

Museum welcomed the idea of celebrating U.S. Navy

veteran John F. Kennedy’s role in America’s space effort P12

AS we enter the FinAL yeAr oF our ceLebrAtion marking the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy administration, I continue to be struck by the community of people who we are fortunate to call friends. From the luminaries who speak at our forums, to the many individuals, corporations, and organizations that provide vital funding for our work, and the thousands of visitors and students who grace our halls, our friends breathe new energy into this institution and help us to fulfill Jacqueline Kennedy’s vision of the Library as a living memorial to the President.

In reflecting on these friendships, it occurs to me that what binds us together is a deep appre-ciation of the history we chronicle here and a shared value of the timeless political ideals that Kennedy championed. This past spring, historian Alan Brinkley came to the Library to discuss his biography, John F. Kennedy: The 35th President,

1961–1963. Brinkley sums up how so many of us feel about the man and his legacy:

“Kennedy reminds many Americans of an age

when it was possible to believe that politics could

be harnessed to America’s highest aspirations, that

it could be rooted in a sense of national community,

that it could speak the country’s moral yearnings.

And perhaps most of all, Kennedy reminds Americans

of a time … when it was possible to believe that

the United States could solve social problems and

accomplish great deeds.”

As you’ll read in this edition of Legacy, the past several months at the Kennedy Library were packed with robust programming and initiatives—each paying tribute to the optimism, vitality, and purpose that defined President Kennedy’s time in office.

Spring 2012 brought the annual Profile in Courage Award and four honorees who all insisted that they were just doing their jobs. But as you read about the three Iowa Supreme Court Justices who struck down a law banning same-sex marriage, and Robert Ford, the U.S. Ambassador to Syria, I think you’ll agree that for public officials, just doing their job often demands a special kind of courage.

This summer our New Frontier Network, a group of young leaders and philanthropists, made their mark at the Democratic National Convention by hosting “Changing Political Demographics,” a forum that stimulated provocative conversation about the politics of change. For me, the event was

an opportunity to step back and bear witness to the torch being passed to a new generation.

In the fall, we saw the installation of the Freedom 7 space capsule, which in 1961 launched the first American into space and now, in our museum, beckons young visitors to dream big. We partnered with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston to bring Picasso’s masterpiece, The Rape

of the Sabine Women to the Library, paying homage to President and Mrs. Kennedy’s appreciation of the arts. And we marked the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis—President Kennedy’s defining moment of international diplomacy—with the publication of Listening In: The Secret White

House Recordings of John F. Kennedy, the opening of To the Brink, a blockbuster exhibit at the National Archives in Washington D.C., and a host of online experiences that brought those thirteen days to life for today’s students.

During his campaign, John F. Kennedy vowed that his administration would be “a time for greatness.” I believe that he fulfilled that promise in the final year of his presidency, when he led the country in making unprecedented progress toward world peace and civil rights for all. Now, fifty years later, the Kennedy Library will once again look to our community of friends to help us remember these pivotal moments in our nation’s history that continue to serve as inspiration for greatness in our own time.

We thank you for your support.

Listening In—The Secret White House Recordings of John F. Kennedy

In July 1962, President John F. Kennedy installed hidden recording systems in the Oval Office and

the Cabinet Room in an effort to pre-serve an accurate record of presidential decision-making in a highly charged atmosphere of conflicting viewpoints, strategies, and tactics. The result is a priceless historical archive comprising some 265 hours of taped material.

In conjunction with the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy presi-dency, Caroline Kennedy, the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library, and presidential historian Ted Widmer carefully selected the most compelling and important of these remarkable secret recordings for release in Listening

In: The Secret White House Recordings

of John F. Kennedy. Fully restored and remastered, two 75-minute CDs of President Kennedy’s secret recordings accompany the extensively annotated transcripts of the recordings. Listening

In is a uniquely unscripted, insider account of a president and his cabinet grappling with the day-to-day business of the White House and guiding the nation through a hazardous era of uncertainty.

In addition to the book and the audio-CD version of the book, Hyperion released a special enhanced eBook, which includes more than twenty-five minutes of video, ranging from archival footage of President Kennedy and President Bill Clinton to new interviews with Caroline Kennedy,

Congressman John Lewis, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, and historian Alan Brinkley, speaking about President Kennedy’s legacy.

Listening In delivers the story behind the story in the unguarded words and voices of the decision- makers themselves, and covers watershed moments of the Kennedy White House, including the Cuban Missile Crisis, the space race, Vietnam, and civil rights.

A softer side of the President can also be heard in various parts of the recordings as Caroline and John Jr. visit their father in the Oval Office. In her foreword to the book, Caroline Kennedy reflected on her own memories of the White House, and what looking back on these tapes meant to her:

“For me, listening to these conversations is a powerful experience. Although at the time, I was too young to understand much

of what was happening, I recall spending happy afternoons eating candy and making paper-clip necklaces under my father’s desk while men talked in serious voices. The delight in my father’s voice when my brother and I appear is something I treasure.”

To mark the release of Listening In, the Kennedy Library hosted a forum on October 4 with Caroline Kennedy, Widmer, Tom Putnam, Director of the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library, and political scholar Ellen Fitzpatrick, who discussed the most significant tapes of the Kennedy Presidency. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Tom Oliphant moderated.

“I recall spending happy afternoons eating candy

and making paper-clip necklaces under my father’s

desk while men talked in serious voices. The

delight in my father’s voice when my brother and

I appear is something I treasure.”

This fall the National Archives and the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum collaborated to present a major new exhibit, To the Brink: JFK and

the Cuban Missile Crisis, commemorating the 50th anniversary of what many consider to be the greatest test of John F. Kennedy’s presidency. The exhibit, which opened at the National Archives in Washington D.C. on October 12, centers around secretly recorded White House tapes of President Kennedy that allow visitors to listen in as President Kennedy and his advisors work furiously to avert a nuclear war and solve the crisis through strategic diplomacy. Curated by Kennedy Library Museum curator Stacey Bredhoff, the exhibit will open at the JFK Library in Boston in April 2013.

To the Brink shows Kennedy and his advisors in the throes of deliberation during thirteen agonizing days in October 1962, as the United States and the then-Soviet Union inched

precariously close to nuclear war. The peaceful resolution of the crisis with the Soviets is considered to be one of President Kennedy’s greatest achievements. Original documents, artifacts, and photographs from the National Archives and the Kennedy Library complement the tapes in a dramatic presentation that draws the visitor into this milestone twentieth-century event.

Additional highlights of the exhibit include JFK’s doodles from October 1962; satellite photographs of Soviet missile sites under construction; CIA-prepared personality studies of Nikita Khrushchev and Fidel Castro; a map of Cuba used and annotated by the President when he was first briefed by the CIA on the missiles; secret correspondence between Kennedy and Khrushchev; and the original chairs used by Kennedy and Khrushchev during the 1961 Summit meeting in Vienna, Austria—the only occasion where the two leaders formally met face-to-face.

To the Brink runs from October 12, 2012 through February 4, 2013 in the Lawrence F. O’Brien Gallery of the National Archives Building in Washington D.C. To the Brink

then travels to the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum in Boston, where it opens in April 2013, and will run through November 2013.

AT&T has been a critical partner in preserving the holdings at the JFK Library and the National Archives.

Recordings featured in the exhibition and on an accompanying website, as well as other presidential

records from the Kennedy Administration, were digitized through a previous generous donation by AT&T.

“AT&T is proud to be sponsoring this truly innovative exhibit at the National Archives, which follows naturally from our help

in digitizing John F. Kennedy’s presidential papers,” said Jim Cicconi, AT&T Senior Executive Vice President. “To the Brink

commemorates the thirteen most important days of JFK’s presidency on the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Not only is this a fascinating exhibit, but it also demonstrates the power of innovative technologies and networks to help

more Americans access our nation’s vibrant history.”

To mark the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis this October, the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum introduced several new

interactive and online activities aimed at educating a younger audience about the thirteen days that brought the world to the brink of nuclear war.

cLouDS oVer cubA

On Tuesday, October 16 at 8:00am ET—exactly fifty years after Soviet missiles were discovered in Cuba—the JFK Library and the Martin Agency, the Library’s pro bono ad agency, launched the interactive website www.cloudsovercuba.com, allowing audiences around the world to experience an immersive documentary that depicts the full story of the Cuban Missile Crisis in riveting detail. Using a realistic “what if” scenario, Clouds Over Cuba gives viewers the option to access a fright-ening short film that explores what the world would have been like if the thirteen tension-filled days of October 1962 led to a thermonuclear exchange instead of a peaceful resolution.

the thirteen DAyS on twitterDuring the anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis, the JFK Library “live-tweeted” the thirteen days of the crisis from its historical Twitter account @JFK1962. The account allowed a new generation to understand one of the most trying times in American history, and offered a realistic perspective of the fear and danger

felt by President Kennedy, his advisors, and the American people.

T hree former Iowa Supreme Court Justices who were part of a unanimous decision to legalize

same-sex marriage in the state were presented with the 2012 John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award™ by Caroline Kennedy on May 7, 2012. Former Iowa Chief Justice Marsha Ternus and former justices David Baker and Michael Streit were chosen in recognition of the political courage and judicial independence each demonstrated in setting aside popular opinion to uphold marriage equality guaranteed to all citizens under the Iowa constitution.

Also honored with a 2012 Profile in Courage Award was Robert Ford, U.S. Ambassador to Syria, whose bold and courageous diplomacy provided crucial support to Syrians struggling under the brutal regime of Syrian president Bashar al-Assad.

“One way that we connect past and present is through the Profile in Courage Award. By honoring individuals who act on principle, without regard for personal consequence, we honor the quality that my father most admired in public life,” said Caroline Kennedy, President of the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation. “This is a special year for the Profile in Courage Award because we are fortunate to recognize four outstanding Americans who demonstrate how critically important it is that men and women of courage serve in all branches of government.”

In 2009, Iowa Supreme Court Justices Marsha Ternus, David Baker, and Michael Streit joined a unanimous opinion that struck down Iowa’s ban on same-sex marriage. The decision was the first unanimous high-court opinion on marriage for same-sex couples, and it made Iowa the third state to legalize same-sex marriage. Although the Court’s decision was unanimous, it provoked a political backlash. In November 2010, voters removed Ternus, Baker, and Streit from office following an unprecedented campaign financed in part by national interest groups opposed to same-sex marriage.

The justices’ ouster marked the first time since Iowa adopted its current judicial system that any sitting Supreme Court judge had lost an uncontested retention election. Ternus, Baker, and Streit were the only three Supreme Court justices subject to a retention vote that year.

As U.S. Ambassador to Syria, Robert Ford took extraordinary personal risks to bear witness to the violence and repression perpetrated by the regime of Syrian president Bashar al-Assad, and to advocate for the human rights of the Syrian people. Ford used social media to establish channels of communication directly with the Syrian people, providing moral support and encouraging them to embrace nonviolent protest in the face of government-backed brutality. A former Peace Corps volunteer and a career member of the U.S. Foreign Service, Ford risked his own safety to show solidarity with ordinary Syrians and to defend the rights of protesters opposing Assad’s regime. He engaged directly with opposition leaders, traveling around Syria despite repeated threats on his life.

The John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award is presented annually to public servants who have made courageous decisions of conscience without regard for the personal or professional consequences. The award is named for President Kennedy’s 1957 Pulitzer Prize-winning book, Profiles in Courage, which recounts the stories of eight U.S. senators who

risked their careers, incurring the wrath of constituents or powerful interest groups, by taking principled stands for unpopular positions.

P atrick Reilly, a junior at Archmere Academy in Claymont, Delaware, was honored by Caroline Kennedy during the May 7, 2012 Profile in Courage Award

ceremony at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library for his essay on former Delaware Governor Russell Peterson, who, in 1971, courageously defied corporate interests in an effort to preserve the natural beauty and resources of Delaware’s coastal areas. Reilly received a $10,000 award for his first-place essay.

The annual Profile in Courage Essay Contest invites high school students from across the nation to write an essay on an act of political courage by a U.S. elected official. The contest is a companion program of the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award™, named for President Kennedy’s Pulitzer Prize-winning book, Profiles in Courage, which recounts the stories of eight U.S. Senators who risked their careers, incurring the wrath of constituents or powerful interest groups, by taking principled stands for unpopular positions. In 2012, 2,078 students submitted essays from all fifty states and Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the Marshall Islands. The essay contest is sponsored by the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation and generously supported by John Hancock Financial.

In his winning essay, “Governor Russell Peterson: Loyal to Future Generations,” Reilly profiles Peterson, who introduced legislation to protect Delaware’s coastal areas from industrial development despite intense pressure from a variety of interest groups. The State Chamber of Commerce opposed the bill,

construction workers staged demonstrations outside his home, and the Secretary of Commerce claimed that he was “being disloyal” to the country. “A lesser man would have crumbled under such a harsh rebuke,” Reilly wrote, “but Peterson simply replied, ‘Hell, no. I am being loyal to future generations of Americans.’” The one-term governor stayed true to his convictions and kept the bill intact, ensuring “clean waters, pristine wetlands, and excellent beaches that continue to support lucrative fishing and tourism industries.”

Reilly received a $5,000 cash award from the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation, which was matched with $5,000 from John Hancock Financial to be contributed to a John Hancock Freedom 529 College Savings Plan. Reilly’s nominating teacher, Timothy Dougherty, received a John F. Kennedy Public Service Grant in the amount of $500 to

be used for school projects that encourage student leadership and civic engagement.

O n October 11, 2012, the National Archives and Records Administration and the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library released an additional seven

boxes of material—more than 2,700 pages—from the Robert F. Kennedy Papers, housed at the Kennedy Library in Boston, including documents relating primarily to the Cuban Missile Crisis.

“The National Archives is pleased to open these materials as the nation and the world mark the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis,” said David S. Ferriero, Archivist of the United States. “Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy played a crucial role in the peaceful resolution of the crisis, and researchers and the public are keenly interested in the information and insights contained in these documents.”

The materials included in the opening consist of documents accumulated by Robert F. Kennedy in his capacity as both Attorney General and advisor to President Kennedy. The files relate chiefly to matters that ordinarily do not come under the jurisdiction of the Attorney General or the Justice Department, and include memos, correspondence, reports, and notes from Executive Committee meetings, as well as CIA and State Department telegrams and cables chiefly related to the

United States’ relationship with Cuba from 1961 to 1963—a time which included the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Bay of Pigs invasion.

While the majority of these materials are opened in full, some will remain restricted because of classified material. No documents are closed due to restrictions related to personal privacy concerns.

Freedom 7 Splashes Down continued from P1

by displaying the capsule in the Museum at the Kennedy Presidential Library.

On May 5, 1961, Alan Shepard became the first American in space in the Mercury capsule, which he named “Freedom 7,” signifying the seven Mercury astronauts.

Two weeks after Shepard’s sub-orbital journey, President Kennedy issued another call to Congress regarding the space race, this time in an address on urgent national needs, stating, “I believe this nation should commit itself, to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth.”

NASA gave Freedom 7 to the Smithsonian in October 1961, the first manned spacecraft accessioned into the national collection. On loan from the Smithsonian Institution’s National Air and Space Museum through December 2015, the installation of Freedom 7 was made possible through the generous sponsorship of Kennedy Library Foundation Board Member Fereydoun Firouz, with additional support from Boeing, Raytheon Company, and DRS Technologies.

The installation of Freedom 7 is part of the Kennedy Library’s ongoing celebration of President Kennedy’s role in championing America’s exploration of space. On August 27, the Kennedy Library hosted a live interview via satellite with two American astronauts—Needham, Massachusetts native Suni Williams and Joe Acaba, the first astronaut of Puerto Rican heritage—who were living and working on the International Space Station (ISS). Satellite hookup allowed the audience to both see and hear the two

astronauts. Co-sponsored by NASA, this event invited children ages eight and older, students, and adults to submit questions to the astronauts.

On August 13, the Library welcomed NASA astronaut Chris Cassidy, who, in July 2009, completed his first space flight and logged more than 376 hours in space, including eighteen hours and five minutes in three spacewalks. Cassidy,

who has been assigned to the Expedition 35 crew as a flight engineer and is scheduled to fly to the ISS aboard Soyuz

34 in March 2013, met with an audience of children and their parents to share his firsthand accounts of what it is like in space.

This May saw the exciting launch of the John F. Kennedy New Frontier Network with Kennedy Library Foundation Board Member and New

Frontier Network Honorary Chair Conan O’Brien. On May 24, O’Brien took to the Kennedy Library forum

stage with moderator Wesley Morris to offer his thoughts on politics, life, and his ever-changing career. For a moment, O’Brien departed from his usual comedic persona to offer the young audience some sound advice:

“It is easier to be cynical and detached than to try. Part of President Kennedy’s brilliance was his ability to inspire young people to public service, to convince them that it was really up to them to change the world.”

Following the forum, over 150 New Frontier Network members and guests attended a reception in the new Learning Center at the Library, which included a sunset cocktail reception on the patio overlooking the harbor.

Opening remarks at the reception were made by co-chairs Jeannie Kedas and Steve Kerrigan, followed by remarks from O’Brien, who shared his first-hand connection to the mission of the program.

The John F. Kennedy New Frontier Network brings together young leaders and philanthropists ages 21 to 49 who are committed to advancing President Kennedy’s ideals of civic engagement and public service to new generations. Members provide a vital source of energy, leadership, and critical funds to the Kennedy Library Foundation, all while participating in dynamic programming and activities.

To learn more about membership in the New Frontier Network, contact Sara Kanawati at 617-514-1673 or [email protected].

On September 5, the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation commemorated the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy administration with a special

discussion and reception at the 2012 Democratic National Convention in Charlotte. Moderated by Meet the Press’

David Gregory, the forum included Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick, Democratic strategist Maria Cardona, New

York Times columnist Matt Bai, and Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes who discussed the influence of changing political demographics on candidates, campaigns, political parties, and public policy.

As the Civil Rights Movement defined the political parties of the late 1960s, heightened debate around marriage equality, women’s reproductive rights, economic disparity, and immigration are defining the parties of today. The event, titled “Changing Political Demographics,” was made possible thanks to the generous underwriting of Liberty Mutual Insurance and Kennedy Library Foundation Board Member Paul Mattera, and graciously hosted by Bank of America.

The discussion opened with remarks from Steve Kerrigan, CEO of the 2012 Democratic National Convention and co-chair of the Kennedy Library Foundation’s New Frontier Network, and Kennedy Library Foundation Board Member Anne Finucane, the Global Strategy and Marketing Officer for Bank of America. Gregory questioned the panelists on the controversial problems facing our political system and how the messaging of each of the 2012 presidential campaigns was affecting different factions of voters.

“We act as if politics is just a competition among sound bites instead of a vision for the future and the kind of country and community we want to live in,” Governor Patrick said. “It’s a cliché to say that elections are about the future, but in fact they are about the future, and it’s incumbent on both parties and candidates to articulate their vision of that future.”

“Changing Political Demographics” was presented as part of the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation’s New Frontier Network programming; an initiative launched to engage young leaders in politics and public service and inspired by President Kennedy’s timeless legacy.

The Kennedy Library Foundation wished its Vice President of Development, Ariadne Valsamis, a fond farewell and best wishes as she left the Kennedy

Library to pursue a new career at Cambridge College, where she has assumed the role of Vice President for Advancement.

The Kennedy Library Foundation’s Director of Development, Maura Hammer, will lead the development team as it gears up for 2013—the final year of the JFK50 campaign drive. Prior to joining the Foundation staff in 2011, Hammer spent six years at Community Rowing, Inc., where she led a $16 million capital campaign to build the first boathouse on the Charles River dedicated to public access. She has also held key development positions at several well-known Boston–area nonprofits, including The Home for Little Wanderers and The West End House Boys and Girls Club.

“As we mark the final year commemorating the 50th anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s presidency, and as we celebrate his enduring legacy, I invite those for whom his life had meaning to reconnect with us. It is a very exciting time

to be working at the Kennedy Library Foundation and I am looking forward to doing my part to lead the development department to new levels of fundraising success,” said Hammer.

changing Leadership

The Annual Fund, launched in summer 2012, is the Kennedy Library Foundation’s source for unrestricted philanthropic

support to relieve and enhance the Foundation’s annual operating budget. The importance of unrestricted support is crucial to ensure the success of our education and public programs and allows us to honor and promote John F. Kennedy’s long-lasting accomplishments, including the fight for civil and equal rights;

the calls to public service and a peaceful and just society; the commitment to space exploration and technology; and the recognition of the importance of the arts. “We know you share our belief that the ideals of President Kennedy and the hope he inspired can energize generations to come,” said Jill Ker Conway, Kennedy Library Foundation Board Member and Chair of the Annual Fund. “We need your help today to continue the kind of programming that has earned the Kennedy Library the national recognition it enjoys.”

The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (MFA) and the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum marked the 50th

anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis—the thirteen days in October 1962 that brought the United States and the Soviet Union to the brink of thermonuclear war—by bringing Pablo Picasso’s larger-than-life masterpiece, Rape

of the Sabine Women, to the JFK Library. In an October 4 ceremony celebrating the

first-ever collaborative piece loan between the MFA and the JFK Library, Caroline Kennedy, President of the Kennedy Library Foundation, and Malcolm Rogers, Ann and Graham Gund Director of the MFA, unveiled Picasso’s painting, thought to have been inspired by the Cuban Missile Crisis and the horrors of war.

“We are thrilled to partner with the Museum of Fine Arts as we commemorate one of the most historic moments of my father’s presidency,” said Caroline Kennedy. “President Kennedy asked us to never forget that art is not a form of propaganda; it is a form of truth. How very honored we are to be able to present this masterpiece by Picasso about the horrors of war.”

“The commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis presented a unique opportunity for the MFA to lend a work from its collection to the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum,” said Rogers. “President and Mrs. Kennedy were champions of the arts, and we are honored to lend Picasso’s powerful masterpiece inspired by the Cuban Missile Crisis—

one of the great treasures of our collection—in remembrance of this pivotal moment in our nation’s history.” Rape of the Sabine

Women was on view in the museum at the JFK Library through January 6, 2013.
