Born in 1935 into abject poverty, married at age thirteen, mother of six, and a grandmother by age 29, Loretta Lynn went on to become one of the most prolific and influential singers in modern country music. Her success includes sixteen No.1 singles, fifteen No.1 albums, and sixty other hits, including "Honky Tonk Girl," "Before I'm Over You," "The Pill," and "After The Fire Is Gone." In 1972 Lynn was the first woman to become the Country Music Association's Entertainer of the Year. Loretta Lynn: Coal Miner's Daughter , a veteran bestseller and the basis of the Oscar-winning film, is her own revealing story of her journey from Butcher Hollow, Kentucky to Nashville stardom, told in a voice as clear, natural, and powerful as the best of her songs.
