Emmylou Harris is one of the most respected and award-winning country performers of the past few decades. But how much do you really know about her life and her legendary career? Here's the untold truth of Emmylou Harris.

Not only is she a talented musician, but Emmylou Harris is also wicked smart.

Born in 1947 in Birmingham, Alabama, Harris's father was a Marine Corps officer who served in the Korean War. He was reported missing in action for a time and spent nearly a year as a prisoner of war before returning home.

Because her father was a Marine, Emmylou and her family moved a lot during her childhood, ending up in Woodbridge, Virginia, where Emmylou attended Gar-Field Senior High School. While there, not only was she a straight-A student, but she played saxophone in the marching band and was also a cheerleader. It's no surprise that a young woman with such diverse talents became class valedictorian in 1965.

After graduating, she moved on to the UNCG School of Music, Theatre and Dance at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro - but not for the reasons you might think.
