Robert F Kennedy

American author, attorney, politician and noted family. He was a politician but people treated him like a pop star. Throughout that last campaign, whenever Senator Kennedy came nearby, people clutched at his hands, pulled off his buttons and cufflinks, trying desperately just to touch him. After the assassination of his brother, President John F. Kennedy, he carried the mantle and the mystique of the hero. He served as Attorney General from 1961-1964 and was a U.S. Senator from1965-1968. His book, titled "The Enemy Within," was published in 1960 and his second book, "Pursuit of Justice," was published in 1964. He ran and claimed victory for the California Democratic Primary 6/05/1968, Los Angeles, CA where he was shot by Sirhan Sirhan in the kitchen of the Ambassador Hotel at 00:20 AM PDT. He died at the Good Samaritan Hospital on the following day at 1:44 AM PDT. Bobby married Ethel Skakel on 6/17/1950 and they had 11 children, the last of whom was born after his death. Some biographers state that he met Marilyn Monroe in February 1962 and soon shared her favors. By early summer she was telling friends that he would marry her. They were together at the home of Peter Lawford in late June and then, suddenly, both Bobby and John cut her off and she was told to not contact either of them again. Link to Wikipedia biography
