Caroline Kennedy is the daughter of President John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. Appointed by President Barack Obama in 2013, she served as the U.S. Ambassador to Japan, the first woman to do so.
An author and attorney, Ambassador Kennedy has written eleven best-selling books on the U.S. Constitution, civics and poetry. She continues to honor her family’s deep commitment to public service through her work as President of the John F.

For more than a decade, she was a leader in New York City’s public school reform efforts, building public-private partnerships and engaging a record number of New Yorkers to volunteer in public schools. In Japan, Ambassador Kennedy worked to increase the number and scope of U.S.-Japanese student exchanges, supported the empowerment of Japanese women, and strengthened the security relationship between the United States and Japan.
