On February 14, 1962, Kennedy Onassis took American television viewers on a tour of the White House on CBS News. In the tour, she stated that "I feel so strongly that the White House should have as fine a collection of American pictures as possible. It's so important ... the setting in which the presidency is presented to the world, to foreign visitors. The American people should be proud of it. We have such a great civilization. So many foreigners don't realize it. I think this house should be the place we see them best". The event was watched by 56 million television viewers in the United States. Kennedy won a special Emmy Award in 1962, making her the only first lady to win an Emmy.
