Directed by
Overview
More than forty years after his assassination, John F. Kennedy remains a towering figure in
American life and politics. From his inaugural speeches and his meeting with the Soviet premier
Nikita Khrushchev to the Cuban missile crisis and the standoff over integration at the University
of Mississippi, he presided over a nation committed to democratic leadership but threatened by
external forces and unresolved divisions at home. JFK: A Presidency Revealed shows that like
the nation he served, he was a flawed giant. This special presentation traces key events in his life
and career. Family members, associates, and historians offer personal and compelling glimpses
into the life of this influential President.
