Author Tina Cassidy shared surprising facts about Jackie Kennedy Onassis in her book “Jackie After O: One Remarkable Year When Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Defied Expectations and Rediscovered Her Dreams.” Much of it focuses on the former first lady's midlife transformation in 1975 when she becomes a widow; fights to save Grand Central Terminal and enters the workforce as a book editor.
