ROBERT F. KENNEDY JR BIOGRAPHY

Robert Francis Kennedy Jr. was born on January 17, 1954, in Washington, D.C., to Robert F. Kennedy, a U.S. senator and attorney general, and Ethel Skakel Kennedy. He is the third of eleven children in the prominent Kennedy family. His uncle was President John F. Kennedy, and his other uncle, Senator Ted Kennedy, was a key figure in American politics.

Kennedy spent his childhood at the Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, and at Hickory Hill in McLean, Virginia.

EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND

He attended the Palfrey Street School in Boston and later graduated from Harvard University in 1976 with a Bachelor of Arts in American history and literature.

After completing his undergraduate studies, Kennedy pursued law, earning a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Virginia School of Law in 1982. He further advanced his legal education by earning a Master of Laws (LL.M.) from Pace University in 1987.

CAREER

Kennedy began his legal career as an assistant district attorney in New York City before shifting his focus to environmental law in the mid-1980s. He joined two major nonprofit organizations focused on protecting natural resources: Riverkeeper and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC).

In 1995, he became the president of the Waterkeeper Alliance, an environmental organization dedicated to protecting water resources across the globe. He founded Children’s Health Defense, a nonprofit organization that advocates against vaccine mandates and promotes misinformation about vaccine safety, particularly with regard to the COVID-19 vaccine.

RFK Jr. is not only known for his environmental and health advocacy but also for his connection to American political history. As a member of the Kennedy family, he carries the legacy of his father, Robert F. Kennedy, who was assassinated in 1968 during his campaign for the U.S. presidency.

RFK Jr. himself entered the political spotlight when he ran as an independent candidate in the 2024 U.S. presidential election after initially seeking the Democratic nomination. His campaign has focused on environmental issues, civil liberties, and a strong criticism of corporate influence in government.

CONTROVERSIES

Kennedy has faced personal and legal challenges throughout his life, including allegations of sexual misconduct in the late 1990s, which he has publicly denied. In 2024, Vanity Fair reported on the claims made by a former babysitter who accused him of inappropriate behavior, though Kennedy dismissed these allegations as false.
