Revamped Jimmy Carter Museum opens in Atlanta

By GREG BLUESTEIN, Associated Press Writer Greg Bluestein, Associated Press Writer – 1 hr 3 mins ago

ATLANTA – The Jimmy Carter Library and Museum reopened on the former president's 85th birthday after an overhaul that devotes more space than any other presidential library to a commander-in-chief's work after the White House.

Carter beamed Thursday as he spoke to hundreds at the opening ceremony, saying: "There's no way any of you can imagine the emotions that fill my heart and my mind in this moment."

About a third of the Atlanta museum explores the Georgia Democrat's life after he was defeated by Ronald Reagan. It includes dozens of photos and videos detailing his efforts to eradicate disease, resolve conflicts and monitor elections.
