35th President of the United States

(January 20, 1961 to November 22, 1963)

Nicknames:

• "Jack," Kennedy was usually referred to as either "John F.

  Kennedy" or "Jack Kennedy", only very rarely as "John Kennedy"

• "JFK," Most prominent nickname and abbreviation of his full name.

• "The King of Camelot," Two weeks after Kennedy's assassination, his wife, Jacqueline, revealed that the score from the 1960 musical Camelot, had been one of her husband's favorites to listen to.

  Parallels were then drawn between the "one brief shining moment"of King Arthur's reign (in the musical) and the mood of idealism and optimism that had characterized Kennedy's presidency.
