About Loretta Lynn:
A true icon of Country music and American culture, Loretta Lynn, also known as the Coal Miner’s Daughter, is celebrating the 50th anniversary of her debut single this year. A member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, a four-time GRAMMY honoree and a recipient of the GRAMMY Lifetime Achievement Award, Lynn began her career with the 1960 success of her debut single, “I’m a Honky Tonk Girl.” The event launched a musical legacy that has included 16 No. 1 singles, including such classics as “One’s on the Way,” “Don’t Come Home A-Drinkin’ (with Lovin’ on Your Mind),” and Lynn’s signature song, “Coal Miner’s Daughter.” The song also shared its name with Lynn’s bestselling 1976 autobiography and the Academy Award-winning 1980 film starring Sissy Spacek. Loretta Lynn: Coal Miner’s Daughter is being re-issued in paperback by Vintage Books in September, with a new foreword by Lynn. In October 2010, Lynn will be honored at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium with a presentation of The Recording Academy’s President’s Merit Award in recognition of her remarkable career and contributions to Country music.
