Full Bio: Jimmy Carter's Early Years

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Jan 11, 2021

Today, we launch the third installment of our Full Bio series. All this week, we’ll be talking to journalist and author Jonathan Alter about his biography, His Very Best: Jimmy Carter, A Life. Alter interviewed scores of people for the book, including the former president and first lady. We start with a look at Pres. Carter’s childhood, how his years on the family’s Georgia farm shaped his outlook, and his long marriage to Rosalyn.
