Betty Davis

Betty Davis (born Betty Gray Mabry, July 26, 1944 – February 9, 2022) was an American singer, songwriter, and model known for her bold, provocative lyrics and electrifying stage presence. She was also the second wife of jazz legend Miles Davis. Critics have often described her as a fiercely original funk artist whose style blended raw emotional intensity with a striking visual identity. Betty Gray Mabry was born in Durham, North Carolina, on July 26, 1944. Her interest in music began around the age of ten, encouraged by her grandmother Beulah Blackwell, who introduced her to blues musicians while Betty spent time on the family farm in Reidsville, North Carolina. By age twelve, she had already written early songs, including “I’m Going to Bake That Cake of Love.” er family later moved to Homestead, Pennsylvania, where her father, Henry Mabry, worked in a steel mill. Betty attended Homestead High School, where she completed her education before beginning her path toward modeling and music.
