Kennedy in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963.
She lived with her mother and stepfather until 1957 when she moved to Minsk to live with her uncle, Ilya Prusakov. Her uncle worked at the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD). Marina worked as a pharmacist in a local hospital. In February, 1961 she met Lee Harvey Oswald at the city dance hall. Six weeks later the couple got married on April 30, 1961 and later had a daughter sometime in February, 1962. In June, 1962, Lee H. Oswald was given special permission to take his wife and child to the United States.
Once in the U.S., they had a second daughter. After the murder of Oswald at the hands of Jack Ruby, she married Kenneth Jess Porter in 1965. They have a grown son. She has resided in Dallas, Texas for many years.
She has appeared in numerous documentaries concerning the assassination of President Kennedy. At one time, she believed that her first husband had indeed been the gunman who killed President Kennedy. More recently, however, she has come to believe that Oswald was not the gunman and that there had been a conspiracy to kill President Kennedy.
