Dolly Rebecca Parton (Nashville, 19 de janeiro de 1946) é cantora norte-americana de música country, considerada um dos maiores nomes desse estilo musical.
Nascida em 1946, filha de um fazendeiro, começou a compor e cantar na infância e, com 18 anos, foi para Nashville. Em 1967 entrou para a dupla Porter Wagoner no lugar de Norma Jean. No ano seguinte já ambos ganhavam o prêmio de "Melhor Dueto do Ano", da Academia de Música Country.
Em 1974, o seu primeiro LP solo "Jolene" fez muito sucesso nos EUA.
