Adriana was the first great-grandchild of President Eisenhower; she was born two months after his death. Adriana became a photographer,[6] and was married for a time to Eduardo Mendoza de la Torre, the ex Vice Minister of Justice in Colombia and later a Vice President of Avianca Airlines, who was the only man to have ever testified against the notorious drug lord Pablo Escobar.[7]
