...former TWA airline hostess and a bride of four months, had died just five days earlier, in the sinking of the chartered, 60-ft. ketch Bluebelle, which her husband skippered. Julian Harvey had been plucked from the sea in the yacht's dinghy with the body of René Duperrault, 7, another passenger...

President Kennedy allowed him two short sittings ("not quite two hours") at the White House a few days before he took off for Paris. Bouché usually counts on three sittings of seven hours. "Of course," said he, "there were always people talking, and he never sat still." Bouché, who finished the portrait in his Manhattan studio, had met the President before. He painted Jackie three years ago, and did a portrait of her sister Lee at that...
