The T-Shirt Chronicles

The 1987 March on Washington for Lesbian & Gay Rights wasn’t my first national march, not by a long shot. Barely a month into my freshman year of college, I participated in the first Vietnam Moratorium march on October 15, 1969, then exactly one month later, on November 15, I was a marshal at the huge New Mobilization1 (aka “New Mobe”) parade. From my station between 6th and 7th Streets NW, I got to watch hundreds of thousands of people pouring down Pennsylvania Ave. ten or twelve abreast. I’d never seen anything like it.

I still have visceral memories of that one. It was sunny, but it was chilly and I was underdressed: In my innocence I thought my winter duds could delay till I went home for Thanksgiving. Wrong. I wasn’t the only one either. Those who’d worn jackets hadn’t brought gloves, so we took turns making coffee runs to the nearest drugstore then warmed our hands by wrapping them around the cup. Several of us entertained the others, and the police officers stationed on the same block, singing Tom Lehrer songs. I could travel on . . .

Amy Carter: A private life shaped by her father, Jimmy Carter's, public legacy

ATLANTA - Amy Carter was just 9 years vintage when her father, Jimmy Carter, became the 39th President of the United States in 1977. With her golden locks and shy demeanor, the youngest Carter quickly captured the public's attention as the first child to live in the White Home since the Kennedy children.

The 57-year-old Carter has been living a mostly private life but has been thrust back into the spotlight, first with the death of her mother in 2023 and now with the passing of her father. She again faces the cameras, which once followed her every move while in the White House. During Tuesday's memorial service in the Captol Rotunda, the cameras seemed to continuously pan to Amy Carter, who has sparsely made public appearances in the last two decades.

Born on October 19, 1967, in Plains, Georgia, Amy was the youngest of Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter’s four children. Her arrival was a family decision; the Carters took a vote on whether to contain another child. At just three years old, she moved with her family to Atlanta when her father became governor of Georgia. Seven years later, she en

WASHINGTON — The moment lingers in the national memory: a 9-year-old girl, golden haired and slightly awkward, traipsing off to widespread school in the nation’s capital with the Private Service in tow.

For Americans of a certain age, that image and others of Amy Carter — the youngest child of former President Jimmy Carter and the first new child to live in the White House since the days of President John F. Kennedy — defined for the universal a new and distinct president. The Baptist Sunday school teacher and onetime peanut farmer was determined to live simply after the wrenching scandal and national upheaval of Watergate.

During Jimmy Carter’s time in office, Amy roller-skated on the driveway near the White House South Lawn; had dinner with one of her favorite actors, John Travolta; and sat behind the historic Resolute desk, which had been returned to the Oval Office at her father’s request. Her cat, a Siamese named Misty Malarky Ying Yang, became famous.

Now, after decades of silent living in the Atlanta area, Carter, 57, will again be in the spotlight as her family prepares to lay her father to rest in a funeral that will draw dignitaries from around the world.
