Choose THREE of the following individuals and discuss, including the issues of Beauty, Body, and Power: Jack Kennedy, Frida Kahlo, Pat Tillman, Evita Peron, Che Guevara, Janis Joplin. Which of these three do you consider iconic, which do you consider charismatic, and which do you consider to be both? How do their lives and deaths relate to issues of Beauty, Body, and Power? And what, if anything, does gender have to do with it? To what degree were and/or are their iconicity and or charisma constructed (by politicians, the media, press agents, studio moguls, family members, photographers, etc), and to what degree did they merge from their own lives and actions?
