In 1953, Dr. Janet Travell from New York purchased what she called the “Carolina Rocker” for her office from P. & P. Chair Company in North Carolina – now part of Troutman Chair Co. A patient of Dr. Travell’s, a young senator from Massachusetts, suffered from chronic back trouble. She prescribed rocking in a rocking chair and he was most comfortable in the very chair in her office.
That Senator of course went on to become one of America’s most remembered presidents. By 1962, John F. Kennedy Jr. had acquired over 14 of the same rocking chairs and he literally had one wherever he went, even one on Air Force One!
