Wilbur Clyde Schwandt (June 28, 1904 in Manitowoc, Wisconsin – July 23, 1998 in Miami, Florida) was an American musician best known for his song "Dream a Little Dream of Me" with Fabian Andre and Gus Kahn.
He frequently used the stage name Don Swan and released many Latin jazz albums in the 1950s and 1960s.
Born in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, on June 28, 1904, he studied composition at the University of Chicago and became an arranger for various big bands, including comedian Bob Hope's touring show.
The success of his albums allowed Swan to form a touring group with whom he played extensively in New York City and Las Vegas.
[2] Schwandt retired from music in the mid-1960s and eventually moved to Miami, Florida, where he died July 23, 1998, at the age of 94.
