Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis autographed typed letter, dated November 27, 1989, on official Doubleday letterhead, signed in turquoise ink as “Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.” In this thoughtful and professional letter addressed to French publisher Georges Herscher of Éditions Herscher in Paris, Mrs. Kennedy reflects on rereading his “magnificent Bernard book” and fondly recalls the pleasure of working together years earlier. She expresses interest in collaborating again, requesting his current list of projects and asking for his judgment on which might work best, underscoring her active role and discerning eye as a senior editor at Doubleday during the later chapter of her career.

Near fine condition with only a couple trial soft surface bends.

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (1929–1994) reinvented herself after the White House as a highly respected editor at Viking and later Doubleday, where she championed significant works of history, art, and literature. This letter is a strong example of her post-presidential professional correspondence, blending elegance, intellect, and genuine editorial engagement—highly desirable to collectors of Kennedy material and literary history alike.
