Warm Spings, GA - Little White House

The "Little White House" in Warm Springs, Georgia, the town in which Franklin Roosevelt sought treatment for polio in 1924 -- nine years before he became U.S. president. Originally named Bullochville for the Bulloch family of Martha Bulloch Roosevelt, mother of President Theodore Roosevelt and maternal grandmother of Franklin Roosevelt's wife, Eleanor, the town was a failing Victorian spa noted for therapy for yellow fever when Roosevelt took a liking to it, eventually turning a little cottage into his expanded southern office. FDR died of a massive stroke there while sitting for a portrait on April 12, 1945. Photo by Carol Highsmith.
