Barbara Mandrell, Born in 1948 – Burning Rage
Music star Barbara Mandrell broke the mold as a country singer. Her career culminated in her being the first person to win the illustrious and coveted ‘CMA’ entertainer of the year award, not once, but two years in a row! A prodigious achievement held only by her.
Barbara stepped out of the limelight in 2000 and is still held in high regard by her former colleagues and peers. Although she says that she misses the spotlight, she made the right choice and has been spending quality time with her family ever since.
