Chesney Henry "Chet" Baker Jr. (December 23, 1929 – May 13, 1988) was an American jazz trumpeter and vocalist. He is known for major innovations in cool jazz that led him to be nicknamed the "Prince of Cool". Baker earned much attention and critical praise through the 1950s, particularly for albums featuring his vocals: ''Chet Baker Sings'' (1954) and '' It Could Happen to You'' (1958). Jazz historian Dave Gelly described the promise of Baker's early career as "James Dean, Sinatra, and Bix, rolled into one". His well-publicized drug habit also drove his notoriety and fame.

Broken Wings (Gibran Novel)
''Broken Wings'' ( ar, الأجنحة المتكسرة, translit=al-ajniḥa al-mutakassira) is a poetic novel written in Arabic by Kahlil Gibran and first published in 1912 by the printing house of the periodical ''Meraat-ul-Gharb'' in New York. It is a tale of tragic love, set at the turn of the 20th century in Beirut. A young woman, Selma Karamy, is betrothed to a prominent religious man's nephew.

They begin to meet in secret, however they are discovered, and Selma is forbidden to leave her house, breaking their hopes and hearts.

The book was later adapted as the 1962 Lebanese film ''The Broken Wings''. In 2018 Nadim Naaman and Dana Al Fardan adapted the book as their musi ...
