Description
<p>To commemorate the 60th anniversary of the JFK assassination we're setting the wayback machine to 2018 when I spoke with Helen O'Donnell. Helen is an accomplished author and historian as well as the daughter of President Kennedy’s chief of staff Kenny O’Donnell -- you might recognize Kenny from Kevin Costner’s portrayal of him in the stellar film about the Cuban Missile Crisis, <a href="https://amzn.to/2y4SPyD" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Thirteen Days</em></a>. Helen’s new book -- out now -- is called <a href="https://amzn.to/2O1eZeR" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Launching LBJ: How A Kennedy Insider Helped Define Johnson's Presidency</em></a>, culled from Kenny O’Donnell’s tapes and journals about the early days of the Johnson administration following Kennedy’s assassination.
