ABC News to Air memories of Jackie Kennedy

 ABC News is to present the memories never heard of Jacqueline Kennedy.

The network announced Wednesday that for the first time viewers will hear the former first lady in conversations with the historian Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.. The recordings were made in the spring of 1964 and sealed until now.


A series of special reports will build on these seven interviews totalling more than eight hours of audio recordings, including Jackie Kennedy has shared his impressions of life, with her husband John f. Kennedy. The recordings were left to daughter Caroline Kennedy. Their release is planned for the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy Administration.


The network said that the centerpiece will be a special prime-time hour, with the other programmes broadcast across all ABC News broadcasts and platforms in September. Diane Sawyer will be the anchor.
