Dolly Rebecca Parton

Dolly Rebecca Parton was conceived in Pittman Center on January 19 1946. She was raised in Sevierville to Avie Lee Parton (a housewife) and Robert Lee Parton (a tobacco farmer). When she was 12 she was already appearing on Knoxville TV. At 13 she was already recording for a small record label and singing at Grand Ole Opry. She relocated to Nashville in 1964 to begin her country singing career following her graduation from high school. She was in love with Carl Dean, who ran an asphalt-paving firm. They were married on May 30th 1966 and have remained together. In 1967 her singing caught the attention of Porter Wagoner, who hired her to perform on his program, The Porter Wagoner Show (1961). She was on the show for seven years. Their duets went viral, and she appeared with his group on the Grand Ole Opry; she also toured and sold records. In the year that her hit "Joshua" reached #1 in the year 1970, her popularity had eclipsed hers and she branched off on her own while still recording duets alongside him. She separated from him to be a singer-songwriter on her own in 1974. Dolly became a huge hit as a songwriter/singer. Dolly was awarded numerous Country Music Association awards (1968, 1970, 1971, 1975, 1976). She was a slim (5'0") beauty, who was an ideal choice for television. In the mid-1970s, Dolly was frequently appearing on talk-shows and specials on TV before getting 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 first film appearance was in 9-to-5 (1980) in which she received an Oscar nomination for her song's title as well as Grammy awards 2 and 3. She also won Grammy awards 2 and 3 Best Country Song and Best Female Country Vocal Performance, for the track "Nine to Five." Further fame was earned through her appearances in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas (1982) and as along with Rhinestone (1984) which featured the song "Tennessee Homesick Blues". Dolly Parton Enterprises is her media empire, worth $100 million. In 1986, she established Dollywood in the form of a Tennessee theme park in Pigeon Forge. This was to honor her Smoky Mountain upbringing. She starred in the television show Dolly (1987 TV series) as her character. For "Trio", she won the Best Country Performance Duo or Group with Vocals Grammy in 1988.
