Kitty Dukakis, dead at 88, was the first Jewish spouse of a US presidential candidate
Kitty Dukakis, the first Jewish spouse of a US presidential candidate, died at 88. She advocated for addiction recovery, Holocaust memory, and humanitarian causes.
Kitty Dukakis, taking her father Harry Ellis Dickson's place, speaks to a crowd gathered at the Vilna Shul on Beacon Hill in Boston on Oct. 28, 1995, as part of the Combined Jewish Philanthropies commemoration of 16 historic Jewish buildings in Boston.
