Tanya Denise Tucker (born October 10, 1958, in Seminole, Texas) is an American country music artist who had her first hit, "Delta Dawn", in 1972 at the age of 13. Over the succeeding decades, Tucker became one of the few child performers to mature into adulthood without losing her audience, and during the course of her career, she notched a streak of Top 10 and Top 40 hits. She has produced a long string of successful albums, several nominations for awards from the Country Music Association, and hit songs that includes 1973''s "What''s Your Mama''s Name?" and "Blood Red and Going Down," 1975''s "Lizzie and the Rainman," and 1988''s "Strong Enough to Bend". Tucker was the youngest of three children. Her father, Jesse "Bo" Tucker, was a heavy equipment operator, and the family moved often as he sought better work. Tanya''s early childhood was spent primarily in Willcox, Arizona, where the only radio station in town played country music.
