DONNA FARGO TRIVIA !!!

Donna Fargo is one of only five country female vocalists to have their own television series. Kitty Wells in 1968 and Dolly Parton in 1976 were the first. The Donna Fargo Show debuted in 1978. The series was produced by the Osmond Brothers, and lasted one season. Barbara Mandrell and Reba McEntire are the other two who have had shows since the Fargo series.

Donna Fargo has only been occasionally active in the music business since the early 1990s, but since that period has established a successful line of greeting cards and has written several collections of poetry and inspirational prose.

In 1978, Fargo announced that she had multiple sclerosis, yet vowed to fight it and continue on with her career. Although seldom discussing health issues in interviews, the disease appears to have been in remission for many years, and Fargo has long been a source of inspiration for others similarly afflicted.

Recognized as one of the leading country songwriters of the era, Fargo's songs have been recorded by Tammy Wynette, Sonny James, Kitty Wells, Tanya Tucker, Jody Miller, Marty Robbins, Dottie West and other artists. Additionally, almost everything Fargo recorded for years was self-penned.

Donna Fargo was born in Mount Airy, North Carolina in 1945. Mount Airy was an area of North Carolina that was well-known for its traditional mountain music.[citation needed] As a child, she sang quite a bit, but did not initially pursue a career in music. After graduating from High Point College where she was a member of Alpha Gamma Delta sorority, she went into teaching in Los Angeles, becoming a high school English teacher. While in California, she met Stan Silver, who became her manager when Fargo was performing in California clubs and first seeking a career in music. At this point, Fargo was still teaching. Fargo and Silver eventually married.

In the 1960s, Fargo recorded for a couple of small labels, Ramco Records and Challenge Records, but achieved no national notice, although the Academy of Country Music named her Most Promising Female Vocalist in 1969. Fargo won this honor despite being considered a regional artist.

Donna Fargo, (born Yvonne Vaughan on November 10, 1945 in Mount Airy, North Carolina), is a Country Music singer and songwriter. She is best known by pop fans for her 1972 Country/Pop crossover hits "The Happiest Girl In the Whole USA" and "Funny Face." Fargo has had six #1 songs on the country charts. She has placed nine songs in the country top five, 15 in the top ten, 17 in the top 15, and 19 songs in the top 20. In all, she has placed 37 songs on the Billboard country charts between 1972 and 1991.
