Cecil W. Stoughton

Cecil William Stoughton (born 18 Jan, 1920 in Oskaloosa, Iowa) is an American photographer. He is best known for being President John F. Kennedy's photographer during his White House years. [Trivedi 2004.] His behind-the-scene pictures of John and Jacqueline and their children in their public and personal life were pivotal in shaping the public's view of the U.S. first family. He took over eight thousand pictures of the family spanning the 34-month period beginning with Kennedy's inauguration and ending with his assassination. [Trask 1988.]

He took the only photograph ever published showing John F. Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe together. [Trivedi 2004. "I got a shot of JFK, Bobby [Kennedy] , and Marilyn all in the same frame when they were packed in the library with a whole bunch of other guests."] He was also the only photographer on board Air Force One after President Kennedy was shot and took the famous photograph of Jackie Kennedy (splattered with blood) and Lyndon Johnson swearing in as the President of the United States. He served as White House photographer during Johnson's first two years in office, as he later recounted in an oral history to the LBJ Presidential Library.
