Abraham Lincoln will not be the only person depicted on the $5 bill much longer.

The Treasury Department announced Wednesday that it will overhaul the design of the $5 note, a move overshadowed by its decision to revamp the back of the $10 bill to include women and to feature Harriet Tubman on the front of the $20.

Civil rights icon Martin Luther King Jr., famed opera singer Marian Anderson and first lady Eleanor Roosevelt will be depicted on the back of the updated $5 bill.

All three will be portrayed in historical moments in front of the Lincoln Memorial, which is currently pictured on the back of the bill. King will be shown delivering his 1963 "I Have a Dream" speech. Anderson will be shown performing in 1939, when concert halls were still segregated and she was banned from singing in Constitution Hall, supported by Roosevelt.

In redesigning the $5 bill, a previously unannounced step, the Treasury will disrupt Lincoln's long-running tenure on both the front of the bill, in a portrait, and on the back, captured as a statue within the Lincoln Memorial. The basic layout of the note hadn't changed since 1929.

When Treasury Secretary Jack Lew announced in June that a woman would be featured on the $10 bill, he explained that the $10 was chosen because it was next in line to be replaced. Years of planning go into updating currency, largely because of the anti-counterfeiting measures that must be implemented.

Lew, however, received sustained criticism from fans of Alexander Hamilton, who wanted his image to remain on the bill, and from some of the groups who had originally advocated portraying a woman on paper currency, who didn't want to have the woman to have to share space with Hamilton.

The plans announced Wednesday reflected the Treasury's efforts to address critics' concerns.
