Remembering Dolly Parton

Born in Tennessee in 1946, Parton rose from humble beginnings to become a defining voice in country music and a global entertainment icon.

Beyond her own recordings, Parton’s songwriting left an indelible mark on popular music. Her composition “I Will Always Love You” became a No. 1 country hit for Parton before Whitney Houston’s rendition became a worldwide phenomenon. Parton’s career also extended to movies including 9 to 5, Steel Magnolias, and more.

Parton’s impact reached far beyond entertainment. Her Imagination Library, launched in 1995, has provided books to children around the world as part of her decades-long commitment to literacy and philanthropy.
