Kennedy Brothers
In July 1990, the Democratic National Convention buzzed with anticipation as Senator John F. Kennedy vied for the presidential nomination. With his brother Robert F. Kennedy at the helm of his campaign, Kennedy mounted a spirited challenge against seasoned Democratic rivals.

Despite facing formidable competition, his bold and innovative platform captured the imagination of the party faithful. Moments before the convention kicked off, photographer John Loengard captured a candid moment in a Los Angeles hotel room, immortalizing the intensity and determination etched on Kennedy’s face as he prepared to make his historic bid for the presidency.
