Dolly Parton has enjoyed seemingly effortless success as a singer, songwriter, movie and television actor, author, businesswoman, and philanthropist ever since she first hit the record charts in 1967. The sheer magnitude of her talent and charisma has created the impression that Parton merely fulfilled her destiny in becoming an entertainment icon. But she had to fight for each major step forward, intentionally breaking precedents to follow her instincts, even when music industry veterans advised against her daring moves. This book focuses on risks Parton took and turning points through the decades where she overcame obstacles and ignored naysayers to become one of the most widely recognized celebrities across the world.
