Karyn Kupcinet (March 6, 1941 - November 28, 1963) was an American actress who was found dead at her West Hollywood, California home, in the days following the JFK assassination.

It has been theorized that her death, officially ruled a homicide, was connected to the assassination or was the result of an accidental fall.

In 1992 her father said linking her to the president's death was "an atrocious outrage" and "calumny." Kupcinet was born Roberta Lynn Kupcinet in Chicago, Illinois to Irv Kupcinet, a sportswriter for the Chicago Daily Times, and his wife, Esther "Essee" Solomon Kupcinet.

She acquired the nickname "Cookie" during her childhood.

She made her acting debut at age 13 in the Chicago production of Anniversary Waltz and went on to attend Pine Manor College for a semester, eventually studying at the Actor's Studio in New York.
