Dolly Rebecca Parton

Dolly Rebecca Parton was born on January 19 1946 in Pittman Center, Tennessee and was raised in Sevierville, Tennessee to Avie Lee Parton who was a housewife and Robert Lee Parton, a tobacco farmer. At 12, she was being telecast on Knoxville TV and at 13 she had already begun recording for an independent label and performing at the Grand Ole Opry. After having graduated from the high school in 1964, she relocated to Nashville to start her country-singing career. She was in love with Carl Dean, who ran an asphalt-paving business; they got married on May 30 1966 and have remained together. Porter Wagoner saw her singing and hired her to appear on The Porter Wagoner Show (1961). She stayed with the show for 7 years, their duets went viral and she performed with his group at the Grand Ole Opry; she also sold and toured records. Her smash hit "Joshua" that reached the top spot in 1970 was her biggest hit single. She decided to go it alone, even though she still recorded duets with the singer. In 1974, she walked away from him to be a solo artist. Dolly became a hugely admired artist and singer. Dolly was awarded many Country Music Association awards (1968, 1970, 1971, 1975, and 1976). The diminutive (5'0") beauty was an ideal candidate for TV at the time, and by the middle of the 1970s she was appearing frequently on TV specials and talk shows , before launching her own show, Dolly (1976). Dolly got her first Grammy award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance in 1977 for "Here You Come Again". Dolly's film debut came in 9 to 5 (1980) in which she was awarded an Oscar nomination for her composition of the title track, as well as Grammy Awards 2 and 3: Best Country Song, and Best Female Country Vocal Performance for the song "Nine to Five." Her fame grew due to her appearances in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas (1982), as along with Rhinestone (1984), with the song "Tennessee Homesick Blues". Dolly Parton Enterprises, worth $100 million, is her biggest. Dollywood was established in Pigeon Forge in Tennessee in 1986 to commemorate her Smoky Mountain roots. She was in the Dolly (1987 television series) as herself. In the episode "Trio", she was awarded the Best Country Performance Duo or Group with Vocals Grammy in 1988.
