The documentary was the first project of Dolly Parton and Sandy Gallin's Sandollar Productions not to feature Parton (having previously produced her film "A Smoky Mountain Christmas" in 1986 and her ABC variety series "Dolly" in 1987-88). Subsequent projects from their company included the Steve Martin "Father of the Bride" films, "Shinning Through," "Sabrina," "IQ," and "Buffy The Vampire Slayer."
