Karyn Kupcinet

Person • Mar 6, 1941–Nov 28, 1963

Karyn Kupcinet (born Roberta Lynn Kupcinet; March 6, 1941 – November 28, 1963) was an American stage, film, and television actress. She was the daughter of Chicago newspaper columnist and television personality Irv Kupcinet and the sister of television director and producer Jerry Kupcinet. On November 28, 1963, six days after the assassination of John F. Kennedy, Kupcinet was found dead in her home in West Hollywood, California. Her death was officially ruled an unsolved homicide. Because it occurred shortly after the assassination, her name was referenced in a number of conspiracy theories surrounding the event, although law enforcement has not established a connection. Irv Kupcinet publicly rejected suggestions linking his daughter to the assassination, and in 1992 criticized NBC's Today for referencing such claims. Her death remains officially unsolved.
