Donaldson Toussaint L'Ouverture Byrd II was an American jazz and rhythm & blues trumpeter.

Donald Byrd quotes

I thought that I would like to be affiliated with some school or institution. As time went on, I also decided on the subject that I wanted to get involved with in addition to music: it was Black Studies.
