From "Vanity Fair" magazine, September 1996:
"Christiane went on to college in America at the University of Rhode Island, where she shared a house for a couple of years with Brown University student John F. Kennedy Jr.; who remains a close friend (as was his mother, whom Christiane describes as 'phenomenal, an inspiration').
Even at that age, Kennedy says, Amanpour 'was sort of the mother of the house. She divided us all up into cooking and cleaning crews. She put a mop in my hand and sent me to clean the toilets. She wasn’t hard; she was just sort of British and determined.'
The trauma of the revolution was handled with characteristic starch. 'There was not one iota of self-pity,' says Kennedy. 'She was very matter-of-fact, very stiff-upper-lip. You wouldn’t have known what she’d gone through.'”
