Meet William Hollice Pugh, Mildred Faye Russell Pugh

Tammy Wynette (born Virginia Wynette Pugh; May 5, 1942 – April 6, 1998).

Tammy was an American country music artist, as well as an actress and author. She is considered among the genre’s most influential and successful artists.

Wynette was born and raised in Itawamba County, Mississippi, by her mother, stepfather, and maternal grandparents. During childhood, Wynette picked cotton on her family’s farm but also had aspirations of becoming a singer.

She performed music through her teen years and married Euple Byrd at age 17. With several marital setbacks, Wynette enrolled in cosmetology school and later appeared on a local country music television program.

Wynette then divorced and moved to Nashville, Tennessee, to pursue a country music career in 1965. She soon met her second husband, Don Chapel, and eventually signed up with Epic Records.

Under the production of Billy Sherrill, her first single was released in 1966 called “Apartment No. 9”. In 1967, she had her first commercial success with the single “Your Good Girl’s Gonna Go Bad”. In the late sixties, Wynette’s career rose further with the number one Billboard country singles “I Don’t Wanna Play House”, “D-I-V-O-R-C-E” and the self-penned “Stand by Your Man”.
