The daughter of Ezra Carter and Mother Maybelle Carter, June was a born into the first family of country music. She and her sisters, Helen and Anita, performed as the Carter Sisters, with June singing, playing autoharp and rhythm guitar, and keeping audiences entertained with her comedic wit.
In 1952, June married Carl Smith, with whom she performed at Nashville's Grand Ole Opry and had two daughters, Rozanna and Rebecca Carlene. After their divorce, she toured with Elvis Presley and was briefly married to a local police officer, Edwin Nix, with whom she had another daughter, Rosie.
In the mid-1950s, June studied at The Actor's Studio in New York City, landing a role in 1958's Country Music Holiday, as well as guest spots on TV westerns and soap operas.

Four years later, Wildwood Flower netted her two Grammys. June won the award for Best Traditional Folk Album and the award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance for the song "Keep on the Sunny Side."
