Jeff,
I've been in this situation before, and Apple is no help at all ("restore from
a backup"). Download a copy of iPhoto Library Manager.app
(http://iphoto-library-manager.en.softonic.com/mac/download). It will correctly
rebuild damaged iPhoto libraries. It saved all my albums from the bit bucket.
