One of the most recognizable faces in the entertainment industry, "mountain man" William Lee first joined The Oak Ridge Boys in 1964. This farmer's son from Brewton, AL, made his professional singing debut at age seven when he and his sister Lanette performed gospel tunes on his grandfather's weekly radio show. His love of music never abated. He sang with his high school's FFA quartet and soon formed a group of his own called The Pilot's Trio. "I have always thought that music has a healing power," he reflects. "No matter what you are experiencing, there is a melody that will help you through the moment." William's fascination and knowledge of the native American's way of life has earned him respect and recognition from American Indians as well as members of The Mountain Man Association. He has been honored with many awards, including Celebrity of the Year in 1994 by the Indian Exposition of Anadarko, OK, which is made up of 15 tribes across the nation, as well as an acclamation from the Cherokee tribe.

William Lee and his wife of 11 years, Brenda, are expecting their first child in August of this year.
