Born and raised in New York City, Schlossberg graduated from Harvard University and New York University where she earned her Master of Professional Studies degree. She is the eldest daughter of designer Edwin Schlossberg and diplomat Caroline Kennedy, and first-born grandchild of John F. Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States, and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.

Early life and education

Schlossberg was born on June 25, 1988, at Weill Cornell Medical Center in New York City, New York, [1] to designer and artist Edwin Schlossberg and author and diplomat Caroline Kennedy. Her maternal grandparents were U.S. President John F. Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis. [2] [3] [4] She is named after her maternal great-grandmother, the philanthropist Rose Kennedy. [4] She and her younger siblings, Tatiana and Jack, were primarily raised in Manhattan's Upper East Side, and has also spent significant time at their maternal grandmother Jacqueline's estate at Martha's Vineyard growing up. [5] Schlossberg's father comes from an Orthodox Jewish family of Ukrainian descent, and her mother is a Catholic of Irish, French, Scottish, and English descent. She was raised Catholic, but her mother would also "incorporate Hanukkah" in the family's holiday party. [6] In 1996, she served as a flower girl to her uncle John F. Kennedy Jr.'s wedding. [7]

Schlossberg attended Brearley School, a private school for girls in Manhattan. [8] In 2006, she enrolled at Harvard University where she studied English literature and documentary filmmaking. [9] [10] While at Harvard, Schlossberg was a research assistant at the Radcliffe Institute. [11] In 2013, she graduated from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts with a Master of Professional Studies degree focusing on video installation. [10]

Career

Schlossberg held various positions with Blowback Productions from 2010 to 2012, including associate editor, associate producer, and production associate. [11] She was also a writer and researcher at Red Board Productions, and also worked for television writer and producer David Milch. [12] She has since developed TV projects with Broadway Video, TruTV and Warner Brothers TV. [10]

In 2016, Schlossberg launched a comedy end time-apocalyptic web series titled End Times Girls Club, [13] [14] produced by Above Average Productions. [15] The series follows Schlossberg as she gives women comic tips to surviving the apocalypse. It was originally conceived from her master’s thesis installation at NYU. [16] Since then, it has evolved into several forms – as a TV pilot produced by Saturday Night Live producer Lorne Michaels in 2017, [17] a Slumber Party Bunker installation in Paris in 2023, [18] and a TikTok channel. [10]

In 2017, she co-produced and co-wrote the Peabody Award-winning documentary series Time: The Kalief Browder Story . [19] [20] In 2018, she was commissioned by Dover Street Market president Adrian Joffe to produce a series of promotional videos for the retailer’s Los Angeles location. [21] In 2020, she once again collaborated with the retailer, as well as the non-profit When We All Vote, for a video series campaigning for increased voter turnout for the 2020 United States presidential election. [22] [23] Schlossberg has also directed music videos for Hyd, [24] Dougie Poole, [25] Swaai Boys, [26] and Ducktails. [27]

She directed, wrote, and starred in the short film Short Gay Tragedy #1 which debuted at the 45th Mill Valley Film Festival in 2022. [28] The same year, she helped open the permanent exhibit honoring John F. Kennedy at the Kennedy Center together with cellist Yo-Yo Ma and second gentleman Doug Emhoff. [29]

Personal life

Schlossberg has been the subject of media coverage throughout her life but largely kept herself out of the public eye. [30] She resides in Ojai, California with her wife, restaurateur Rory McAuliffe, whom she married in 2022. [31] [30]
