Nureyev and the Kennedy Family
The grave marker of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis
1929 -1994
Our hunt for "Tatar Washington DC" continues In Arlington National Cemetery, where we paid our respects to many fallen heroes and figures in American history including President John F. Kennedy, and his family resting at his side.
In the Museum of National History, part of the Smithsonian museum displays this gown worn by Jacqueline Kennedy on the day of her husband's inauguration
Margot and Rudolf
Jacqueline Kennedy, being fond of the arts, viewed a performance of Margot Fonteyn and Rudolf Nureyev dancing "Giselle". She was pleased enough to make her way backstage with flowers for Mr. Nureyev where his manager told her that "Rudi needs to rest" and did not tell Nureyev of his honourable guest. Afterward, he was furious and made great efforts to find Jackie and repair this awkward introduction and did in fact solidify a loving mutual friendship between the two.

Nureyev's Grave in Paris
Rudolf Nureyev's memorial was unveiled on Monday 6th May 1996 in the Russian cemetery in Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois close to Paris.
It was designed and built by set designer, Ezio Frigerio.
This mosaic memorial resembles one of the oriental kilim rugs that Nureyev loved so much.
