Ex-President Jimmy Carter Got a ''Grammy''
Jimmy Carter, the 39th president of the United States, on Monday racked up another feat - becoming a two-time Grammy winner.
The 91-year-old won for the second time at the music industry's premier awards in the category of Best Spoken Word Album for "A Full Life: Reflections at 90," an audio version of his memoir.
In the book, Carter describes his rise in politics and his stinging election defeat to Ronald Reagan in 1980, - News Yahoo reports. But he also discusses his concerns about the state of the world and especially focuses on his worries about the impact of the marginalization of women.
Carter also won a Grammy in 2007 for "Our Endangered Values: America's Moral Crisis," another audio version of a book on his political views. Carter won the latest award over nominees including 69-year-old punk icon and writer Patti Smith, who despite her wide influence on music has never won a Grammy.
