Audrey Faith Perry known as Faith Hill was (born September 21, 1967) is an American country singer of the 1990s, known for her remarkable pop success as well as her much-publicized marriage to singer Tim McGraw. Hill was born in Jackson, Mississippi but was raised in Star, Mississippi and began singing at a very early age. After graduating high school, Hill went to college briefly before dropping out and moving to Nashville in an attempt at starting a singing career. Faith is adopted and met her biological mother in the early 1990's. Her height is 1.75m. She also briefly married a music executive named Dan Hill from 1988-1994. Working as a secretary to a music publishing company, Hill's singing was noticed as she sang to herself one day. She soon signed to Warner Brothers Records.
Hill's debut album was Take Me as I Am (1993 in music); sales were strong, buoyed by the chart success of "Wild One". The follow-up single, "Piece of My Heart" (Janis Joplin) also went to the top of the country charts. She was delayed in the recording of her second album by surgery on her vocal cords and it finally appeared in 1995 (see 1995 in music). It Matters to Me was another success, and the title track was her fourth #1 country single. When Tim McGraw proposed in one of the trailers, he had to go perform, so she took a permanent marker and wrote her answer on the mirror. Hill began touring with Tim McGraw and married him on October 6, 1996. The couple has 3 children together; Gracie Katherine, Maggie Elizabeth and Audrey Caroline. Hill's 1998 album, Faith, moved her closer towards a mainstream, pop-oriented sound, which lost her many of her longtime fans. "This Kiss" became a #1 country hit, and went to #7 on the pop charts. Hill's fame grew rapidly as she signed an endorsement deal with Cover Girl makeup and released Breathe, an even more successful pop hit that became one of the biggest albums of 2000 (see 2000 in music). "The Way You Love Me", "There You'll Be" and "Let's Make Love" were also commercially successful singles. In 2002, Hill released Cry. The title track from Cry was written and originally performed by Angie Aparo.
Faith Hill has recently co-starred in the 2004 movie version of The Stepford Wives.
