Caroline Kennedy feels like a childhood friend. I grew up seeing her image on TV and in Life magazine articles. She was a White House princess, and, like many of my classmates, I wanted to be her. So I jumped at the chance to hear Caroline in person at a Dominican University/ Book Passage event last week. She would be talking about poetry and her latest book She Walks in Beauty.
Poetry? Kennedy had written best-selling books on constitutional law, politics, and American history before she began anthologizing poetry. I was curious: Why the change in direction?
