Born Kazue Kato (加藤和枝) in Yokohama, she was an accomplished singer by the age of seven, and appeared in film for the first time at age 12. Between 1949's Kanashiki kuchibue and 1971's Onna no Hanamichi, she appeared in over 60 movies.
In April of 1987, on the way to a performance in Fukuoka, she suddenly collapsed. Rushed to hospital, she was diagnosed with bilateral femoral necrosis brought on by chronic hepatitis. Until August she was confined to hospital and eventually showed signs of recovery. She commenced recording a new song Midaregami in October, and in 1988 performed at a concert called Fushichou konsaato (Phoenix Concert) at the Tokyo Dome. Against overwhelming pain in her legs, she performed a total of 39 songs while assuring her fans that she had completely recovered. However, on 24 May 1989, having been re-admitted to the Juntendou hospital in Tokyo, she died from interstitial pneumonitis at the age of 52.
In July 1989 after her death, she became the first female recipient of the National Prize of Honour (国民栄誉賞) for her longstanding contributions to the music industry.
In 1993, the Misora Hibari-kan opened in Arashiyama, Kyoto. Its popularity with fans and tourists has endured through to the present.
Her most famous song, "Kawa no nagare no yō ni," (1989) was voted #1 in a 1997 NHK poll of the best Japanese songs of all time.

美空ひばり Lyrics
吐息まじりに 微笑(わら)った
頬に淋しい ほくろがひとつ
どこかおまえに 似ている
似ているようで
酔いにまかせて 抱きよせた
しのぶ...... しのぶ......
小さな爪が あゝ 背にいたい
不幸つづきの 運命(さだめ)が
痩せたおまえを なお細くする
なんでいまさら 旅路の
旅路のはてで
すてたおんなの 名をなぞる
しのぶ...... しのぶ......
のむほどにがい あゝ こおり酒
おとぎばなしか 酒場は
酒のちからで 夢さえかなう
ふたり咲かせる 小さな
小さな春を
逢いに帰ろか あの路地へ
しのぶ...... しのぶ......
さすらう町に あゝ 冬の雨
頬に淋しい ほくろがひとつ
どこかおまえに 似ている
似ているようで
酔いにまかせて 抱きよせた
しのぶ...... しのぶ......
小さな爪が あゝ 背にいたい
不幸つづきの 運命(さだめ)が
痩せたおまえを なお細くする
旅路のはてで
すてたおんなの 名をなぞる
しのぶ...... しのぶ......
のむほどにがい あゝ こおり酒
おとぎばなしか 酒場は
酒のちからで 夢さえかなう
ふたり咲かせる 小さな
小さな春を
逢いに帰ろか あの路地へ
しのぶ...... しのぶ......
さすらう町に あゝ 冬の雨

名曲に認定します。 美空ひばりは素晴らしすぎます。 現在のところ このように情感を醸し続けながら最後まで歌いきれる歌手はいないでしょう。 ゆったりと滑らかに低音と高音をシームレスに、揺れるように入れ替えながら歌唱しているので波が打ち寄せては返り、打ち寄せては返りしているかのようです。
大川栄策のさざんかの宿、五木ひろしの細雪と比べて評価が低すぎるのではないでしょうか。
