## Early life and family
Rose Schlossberg was born at New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center weighing 7 pounds, 12 ounces, and her parents named her after [Rose Kennedy](https://www.edgepedia.org/rose-kennedy), the 97-year-old matriarch of the Kennedy clan; she was the first grandchild of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.[3](https://newspapers.swco.ttu.edu/server/api/core/bitstreams/962af426-bbec-42db-8acf-4f3b3d6c49db/content) Her parents are the lawyer and author Caroline Kennedy and the interactive-media designer Edwin A. Schlossberg, and she has two younger siblings, Tatiana and [Jack Schlossberg](https://www.edgepedia.org/jack-schlossberg).[1](https://jfkhyannismuseum.org/rose-schlossberg/) • [4](https://www.thepeerage.com/p6519.htm)
The family kept the children out of public events; their father told a reporter that he never took the children to public appearances to shield them from photographers who had followed their mother in her youth.[7](https://feldmangallery.com/assets/pdfs/Schlossberg_Selected-Press.pdf) One appearance that touched her directly was the 1999 death of her uncle [John F. Kennedy Jr.](https://www.edgepedia.org/john-f-kennedy-jr) in a plane crash, which a Spanish profile describes as sending ten-year-old Rose into a depression lasting about six months.[5](https://elpais.com/smoda/famosos/la-nieta-jfk-jackie-kennedy-youtuber.html) In 2011, Rose and her siblings signed a deed of gift donating their mother's oral history interview to the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library, accepted by the Archivist of the United States that September.[8](https://static.jfklibrary.org/8v4b1u638j62u7jr6q1p262d7713262p.pdf?odc=20251204115649-0500)
## Education
Schlossberg attended [Harvard College](https://www.edgepedia.org/harvard-college) from 2006 to 2010 and earned a bachelor's degree in English in 2010.[1](https://jfkhyannismuseum.org/rose-schlossberg/) • [2](https://clarksmagazine.com/rose-schlossberg/) She then entered New York University's Interactive Telecommunications Program (ITP), a graduate program combining art and technology, and completed a Master of Professional Studies there in 2013.[1](https://jfkhyannismuseum.org/rose-schlossberg/)
## Career
**Early production work.** From 2010 to 2012 Schlossberg held several positions at Blowback Productions, including associate editor, associate producer, and production associate. She also worked as a writer and researcher at Red Board Productions and for the television writer and producer [David Milch](https://www.edgepedia.org/david-milch), and she later developed television projects with Broadway Video, TruTV, and Warner Bros. Television.[9](https://wikishorts.net/en/Rose_Schlossberg)
*End Times Girls Club* grew out of her NYU master's thesis installation.[9](https://wikishorts.net/en/Rose_Schlossberg) Launched on YouTube in 2016 with her friend Mara Nelson-Greenberg and produced by Above Average, the digital arm of [Lorne Michaels](https://www.edgepedia.org/lorne-michaels)'s Broadway Video, the series features Schlossberg as "Bee" and Nelson-Greenberg as "Lara," giving comic tips to women on surviving the apocalypse, from hairstyles for a hurricane to mascara made from ashes and auto grease.[1](https://jfkhyannismuseum.org/rose-schlossberg/) • [5](https://elpais.com/smoda/famosos/la-nieta-jfk-jackie-kennedy-youtuber.html) • [10](https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/see-jackie-kennedy-lookalike-granddaughter-040940338.html) Schlossberg traced the idea to 2012, when [Hurricane Sandy](https://www.edgepedia.org/hurricane-sandy) caught many New Yorkers unprepared.[5](https://elpais.com/smoda/famosos/la-nieta-jfk-jackie-kennedy-youtuber.html) The concept later took other forms: a television pilot produced by [Saturday Night Live](https://www.edgepedia.org/saturday-night-live) creator Lorne Michaels in 2017, a *Slumber Party Bunker* installation shown in Paris in 2023, and a TikTok channel.[9](https://wikishorts.net/en/Rose_Schlossberg)
**Documentary and film.** In 2017 Schlossberg co-produced and co-wrote the six-part documentary series *Time: The Kalief Browder Story*, about a teenager held for years at New York City's Rikers Island without trial; the series won a Peabody Award, and the awards listing credits her with the writing.[1](https://jfkhyannismuseum.org/rose-schlossberg/) • [9](https://wikishorts.net/en/Rose_Schlossberg) • [11](https://www.documentarytube.com/blog/all-about-caroline-kennedys-3-children-rose-tatiana-and-jack/) She directed music videos for the musicians Hyd, Dougie Poole, Swaai Boys, and Ducktails.[9](https://wikishorts.net/en/Rose_Schlossberg) A short film she wrote, directed, and starred in debuted at the 45th Mill Valley Film Festival in 2022; sources print its title differently, as *Short Gay Tragedy #1* and *Small Gay Tragedy #1*.[1](https://jfkhyannismuseum.org/rose-schlossberg/) • [6](https://nz.news.yahoo.com/jack-schlossbergs-oldest-sister-rose-153344916.html)
**Commercial and civic projects.** In 2018 the retailer Dover Street Market's president Adrian Joffe commissioned her to produce a series of promotional videos for its Los Angeles location, and in 2020 she made a video series with the retailer and the non-profit When We All Vote encouraging turnout for the 2020 [United States presidential election](https://www.edgepedia.org/united-states-presidential-election).[9](https://wikishorts.net/en/Rose_Schlossberg) That year she also helped open the permanent exhibit honoring [John F. Kennedy](https://www.edgepedia.org/john-f-kennedy) at the Kennedy Center alongside the cellist [Yo-Yo Ma](https://www.edgepedia.org/yo-yo-ma) and second gentleman Doug Emhoff.[9](https://wikishorts.net/en/Rose_Schlossberg) In 2025 she wrote a piece about the Channel Islands archipelago off the California coast for the debut issue of *Revue Passager*, a biannual, bilingual magazine based in Paris.[9](https://wikishorts.net/en/Rose_Schlossberg)
## Personal life
Schlossberg married Rory McAuliffe in 2022 and lives in [Ojai, California](https://www.edgepedia.org/ojai-california), north of Los Angeles.[1](https://jfkhyannismuseum.org/rose-schlossberg/) • [6](https://nz.news.yahoo.com/jack-schlossbergs-oldest-sister-rose-153344916.html) McAuliffe owns the restaurant Rory's Place and a sister cafe in Ojai, and Schlossberg has invested in and helps run the restaurants; a new venture, Rory's Other Place, opened after a fire destroyed the original shop.[1](https://jfkhyannismuseum.org/rose-schlossberg/) • [6](https://nz.news.yahoo.com/jack-schlossbergs-oldest-sister-rose-153344916.html) Her sister, the environmental journalist [Tatiana Schlossberg](https://www.edgepedia.org/tatiana-schlossberg), died in December 2025 at the age of 35 of acute myeloid leukemia.[6](https://nz.news.yahoo.com/jack-schlossbergs-oldest-sister-rose-153344916.html) • [12](https://www.vanityfair.com/news/story/jack-schlossberg-interview)
## Public profile
Early press attention centered on her resemblance to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis; the *New York Post* nicknamed her "Jackie 2.0," and *El País* described her mix of Bouvier features and Kennedy manner as the visual complement to her deadpan comic persona.[5](https://elpais.com/smoda/famosos/la-nieta-jfk-jackie-kennedy-youtuber.html) • [13](https://www.iodonna.it/personaggi/interviste-gallery/gallery/sulle-orme-di-nonna-jackie/) During a brief period signing pieces for the *New York Times*, she used her paternal surname even when editors asked her to use her mother's.[5](https://elpais.com/smoda/famosos/la-nieta-jfk-jackie-kennedy-youtuber.html) As her younger brother Jack moved into social media and electoral politics, Rose has stayed largely out of the public eye, focusing on her career as a writer and documentarian.[6](https://nz.news.yahoo.com/jack-schlossbergs-oldest-sister-rose-153344916.html)
