While the Grammy-award-winning singer, producer, and composer has a long list of well-known children, very little is known about David's eldest daughter, who came into his life 30 years after he gave her up for adoption.

David was in his twenties when he gave Allison away. However, the father/daughter duo did not let the time that passed stop them from forming a close relationship. Allison joined her father's foundation and has publicly supported him at events.

"Allison's background includes more than 15 years with Fortune 500 companies in various roles, including sales, business development, and product management. Allison's role on the board is to strengthen strategic corporate partnerships and improve community and business relations."

After Allison was born, David welcomed his second daughter, Amy S. Foster, on July 29, 1973. Amy followed in her father's footsteps and pursued a career as a musician. She also established herself as an author with multiple novels.

"I missed a lot because I didn't raise them. The geography was really tough. That was my own doing and a regret that I have, but it was what it was, and there was no changing it."

David welcomed his fourth daughter, Erin Foster, on August 23, 1982. She also developed a knack for acting and landed roles in "Still Waiting..." in 2009 and "Circle" in 2010. While her father married his fourth wife in 2019, Erin married her longtime boyfriend, Simon Tikhman.
