==Personal Life== Buckley married **Patricia Aldyen Austin Taylor** in 1950, a Canadian Protestant who converted to Catholicism. The couple had one son, **Christopher Taylor Buckley**, born in 1952, a novelist and humorist. Known for his charm, Buckley hosted lavish parties at his Manhattan townhouse and Stamford, Connecticut, estate, socializing with conservatives like **Clare Boothe Luce** and liberals like **John Kenneth Galbraith**. An avid sailor, he crossed the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, chronicled in *Airborne* (1976) and *Racing Through Paradise* (1987). Buckley played the harpsichord, enjoyed Bach, and skied annually in Switzerland, embodying a patrician lifestyle.
