Although Parton had already achieved success in writing songs for others in the country music scene, she made her debut as a singer in 1967 with her album Hello, I’m Dolly.
She has since launched her own record label, Dolly Records, seen 25 of her songs reach number one on the Billboard country music charts and collected 11 Grammy Awards, and ten Country Music Association Awards, including being just one of seven female artists to win CMA’s Entertainer of the Year Award alongside the likes of Taylor Swift and the Dixie Chicks.

The singer has also donated a portion of her wealth to various causes, including $1 million to Vanderbilt University which helped developed the covid vaccine Moderna.
