 | Jim Denny (1911-1963) Was one of the first members inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. Once a powerful figure in the Music Industry, Denny founded Cedarwood publishing with Webb Pierce in 1953. Another business venture, the Jim Denny Artist Bureau at one time represented most of the major stars in country music.
Although less controversial than Al Gore, as manager of the Grand Old Opry turned away Elvis Presley telling him that he "wasn't quite right" for the Opry. If he hadn't Elvis might have become a Country star and never been the King of Rock and Roll.
