Jackie Kennedy had already lived a fascinating life by the time she met John F. Kennedy, future President of the United States, in 1952. As a young socialite with a Wall Street stockbroker father and an equestrienne mother, Jackie was an avid rider herself—early photos show her with her parents at horse shows or even riding and competing herself. As a young debutante, she spent some of her college years studying abroad and even had a newspaper career in her early 20s while she was "courting" her husband-to-be. Given Jackie's subsequent public life (and then withdrawal after her husband's death), these images are an interesting look at the future First Lady. Below, 32 gorgeous photos of a young Jackie Kennedy.
