On this episode of Our American Stories, in honor of Jackie Kennedy, who died this week in history in 1994, we tell the story of the preservation of an American icon. Before becoming the face of "Camelot" and a fashion icon of the ’60s, former First Lady Jackie Kennedy was a born-and-raised New Yorker. In 1975, after returning to live full-time in Manhattan, she took on a new cause: saving Grand Central Terminal from demolition. Natasha Wing, author of When Jackie Saved Grand Central, shares the story.
