Given that we are nearing the end of Historic Preservation Month, it s especially appropriate now to honor people who have ensured the preservation and restoration of numerous historic sites. Among these champions are two women who you ve likely heard of but who are not particularly well known for their efforts in preservation, per se: Jackie Kennedy and Doris Duke.
Although we often associate both Doris Duke and former First Lady Jackie Kennedy as being fashion icons, socialites, and all-around women of taste, they also played key roles in the preservation of historic homes and sites across the globe, including what is arguably the most famous dwelling in the United States the White House as well as the Olana State Historic Site and numerous properties in Newport, Rhode Island.
