| Abstract | Jazz singer Dianne Reeves was born on October 23, 1956 in Detroit, Michigan. While attending Denver's George Washington High School, Reeves sang in a big band that performed at the National Association of Jazz Educators' convention, where she was discovered by her future mentor, jazz trumpeter Clark Terry. Reeves moved to Los Angeles, California in 1976, performing with Caldera and Billy Childs, and collaborating with her cousin, George Duke. In 1981, she toured internationally with Sergio Mendes. Palo Alto Records released her first album, Welcome to My Love, in 1982. Reeves toured as a lead vocalist with Harry Belafonte for the next three years, and signed with Blue Note Records in 1987.
