Tammy Wynette, also known as the "First Lady of Country Music," was an American country singer and songwriter. Born on May 5, 1942 in Itawamba County, Mississippi, she became one of the most influential figures in country music history. Despite facing criticism from the Feminist movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s for her controversial song 'Stand By Your Man,' it remains one of the most covered songs and biggest selling hit singles by a woman in country music. Throughout her career, Tammy Wynette married multiple times, including to performers such as George Jones and Michael Tomlin.

With a distinctive voice that captured the hearts of millions, Tammy Wynette's music resonated with audiences around the world. Her emotional ballads touched upon themes of love, heartbreak, and resilience. Influenced by artists like Connie Smith, Loretta Lynn, Kitty Wells, and Dottie West among others; she left an indelible mark on country music.

Despite her untimely death on April 6th, 1998 at age 55; Tammy Wynette's legacy lives on through her timeless songs and contributions to the genre. Her impact can still be felt today as new generations continue to discover her powerful storytelling abilities through hits like 'D-I-V-O-R-C-E' and 'Til I Can Make It On My Own.'
