No photographer was closer to John F. Kennedy than Jacques Lowe. No photograph has better captured the complexity and personality of JFK, the Kennedy family, and the spirit of Camelot, Now in JFK Remembered, Jacques Lowe presents the definitive photographic portrait of Kennedy and tells the story of what he saw during his years with JFK. Jacques Lowe first became friendly with the Kennedys when he was assigned by three different magazines to photograph an emerging crusader named Robert Kennedy. His work impresed the entire Kennedy family so much that he received a midnight phone call from Joseph Kennedy, who asked Lowe to photograph his other son, Jack, then a U.S. senator. What began as a family favor evolved into the most personal relationship JFK - or any other president since Abraham Lincoln - would ever have with a photographer: Lowe took over 40,000 photos, covering the last five years of JFK's life, including the White House years.
