Late US president Jimmy Carter on Sunday won a posthumous Grammy Award — his fourth — for best audiobook, narration and storytelling recording for a collection of his final Sunday school lessons in Georgia.
Jason Carter, one of the former president’s grandsons who delivered a eulogy at his funeral, appeared at the pre-gala ceremony in Los Angeles to accept the award.
Other nominees in the category included legendary singer Barbra Streisand, country superstar Dolly Parton and funk master George Clinton.Carter — who served as US president for a single term from 1977 to 1981 — taught Sunday school for 50 years at Maranatha, usually more than once a month.
He garnered his previous three Grammy wins in the best spoken word album category: for “Faith – A Journey for All” in 2019; for “A Full Life: Reflections at 90” in 2016; and for “Our Endangered Values: America’s Moral Crisis” in 2007.
