All of the songs David performs are original-- which is very unusual in the children's field-- with music composed by him and lyrics written by his older sister, Susan Jack Cooper, a former "Captain Kangaroo" staff writer. David grew up in Levittown, Pennsylvania. He was graduated from UCLA with a degree in Music Education.

David Jack has given concerts and has entertained at Children's Festivals all over the United States. He appears frequently on TV and radio.

Sesame Place is the only theme park in the country based on the hit TV show Sesame Street.

David's concert video, "David Jack... Live! Makin' Music, Makin' Friends" (currently distributed in 17,000 retail outlets under the Good Housekeeping banner) sets new standards in the children's video field with it's high quality of content, and impressive production values. An advance review from the Philadelphia Inquirer raved: "Four stars...a terrific video."
