Rory Kennedy, youngest daughter of Senator Robert and Ethel Kennedy, and niece of John F. Kennedy, paid a visit to Bunratty Castle and Folk Park, Co. Clare, today.
While there the award winning humanitarian documentary maker retraced the steps of Jackie Kennedy who visited the Castle in the summer of 1967.
At that time Jackie attended a special medieval banquet at the 15th century castle with two of her children during a five week vacation in Ireland. Entertainment was provided by members of the Shannon Castle Entertainers who had performed for her husband John F. Kennedy on his departure from Shannon Airport in 1963.
Rory is speaking tomorrow (Tuesday) at the University of Limerick about her career and in particular about the film she made about her mother Ethel Kennedy entitled ‘Ethel’.
