Nancy Kissinger, Who Lived Alongside Cold War History, Has Died

Nancy Kissinger, a foreign policy researcher who worked for Nelson Rockefeller before marrying Secretary of State Henry Kissinger in 1974, has died. She was a personal link to a time of Cold War diplomacy — easing tensions with the Soviet Union, opening relations with China, and negotiating an end to the Vietnam War. That era's legacy still divides historians. She belonged to the Rockefeller-Kissinger policy circle throughout.
