Dolly Rebecca Parton is a Grammy Award-winning American
singer-songwriter, author, actress and philanthropist, known for her prolific
work in country music. In the 44 years since her national chart debut, she
remains the most successful female artist in the history of the genre, with 25
number-one singles (a record for a female artist), and a record 42 top-10
country albums. She has the distinction of having performed on a top-5 country
hit in each of the last five decades and is the only artist to score a No. 1
country single in each of the past four decades.
Born January 19, 1946, her primary personality traits are represented by
the Chinese Zodiac elemental animal sign, the Wood Rooster. This is a kindler
and gentler Rooster, one actually willing to make compromises every now and
then. Her creativity plus her business sense makes she a likely success as an
entrepreneur or consultant---or a performing artist who can actually make money
at it. She’s a sociable Rooster who enjoys being with people as well as being
in the limelight. She can be quite open-minded and have a wide scope of
interests.
