John “Jack” Bouvier Kennedy Schlossberg was born and raised in New York City where he learned that public service is about showing up, working hard, and helping others.
After graduating from Yale University, he earned a joint J.D./M.B.A. from Harvard Law and Business Schools. His academic and professional work reflect his belief that government can be used as a tool for good.
Jack has worked in both the private and public sectors, including in law and policy, and he’s written for major national outlets. In recent years, he’s built a strong online presence focused on civic-minded content that helps people engage with politics and understand how decisions in Washington affect their daily lives.
During the 2024 election cycle, Jack served as a surrogate for President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, campaigning across the country to connect with young voters and promote a message of unity, strength, and service. He also served as a delegate for New York State at the 2024 Democratic National Convention and worked for the U.S. Department of State.
Now, Jack wants to take his fight to Congress to make sure New Yorkers have a voice that represents their values and amplifies their fight. He’s focused on rooting out corruption, defending civil rights and personal freedoms, making housing affordable, protecting public health, and rebuilding trust in government.
Schlossberg is a devoted son of Ambassador Caroline Kennedy and Edwin Schlossberg who designed the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island museums. He is the only grandson of President John F. Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. His paternal grandfather, Alfred Schlossberg, was also elected president… of his synagogue uptown and spent decades working in the garment business with an office in the Empire State Building. Public service and community leadership run on both sides of his family.
