Nancy Kissinger, wife of ex-US secretary of state Henry Kissinger, dies at 92
Henry was 50, and Nancy Kissinger was 39, when they married on March 30, 1974, in Arlington, Virginia.
Nancy Kissinger, the wife of the late former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, passed away at the age of 92. She spent her final years in South Kent, Connecticut, as reported by the New York Times. Having traveled alongside her husband during his tenure as the US secretary of state under Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, Nancy was often praised for her elegance, wit, and charm.
Standing at nearly 6 feet tall and with a lithe figure, she appeared strikingly different from her 5-foot-8 husband. Born on April 13, 1934, in Manhattan to Albert Bristol Maginnes and Agnes McKinley, Nancy grew up in White Plains and graduated from Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts. It was in 1964 that she met Henry Kissinger, who was then working as a foreign policy adviser for then Governor Nelson Rockefeller.
After marrying in 1974, Nancy became a prominent figure in New York's social scene, accompanying Henry to various events and gatherings alongside other elite socialites and media personalities.
