Naomi Judd, who topped the country music charts in the 1980s and early 1990s with her daughter Wynonna in the Grammy-winning singing duo the Judds, has died aged 76.
Naomi and Wynonna Judd began singing together in the late 1970s and became well known after appearances on country music kingmaker Ralph Emery’s morning television show in Nashville. By then Naomi had already been through one marriage, survived sexual assault and drug use, supported her daughters on welfare and become a registered nurse.
