Yes, of course, David was a great poet of God also, as well as the other annointings he had. At the very beginning of each Psalm it is said who it belongs to (verse 1 in each Psalm) and very few are without any name such as 91 and 92, but they maybe following the previous psalm 90 so that makes Moses the author of them. But in the Hebrew original it is written "of David" - "L'Dovid" at the beginning of the psalms that belong to him. Also in the New Testament it is said that David was the author of many psalms. Romans 4:6-7 for example. Shalom !

Yes, according to tradition, King David wrote all of the 73 Psalms that bear his name, plus all the Psalms that name no author (another thirty or so). The remaining Psalms (of the 150) were written by others (Adam, Moses, etc.) and collated by David (Talmud, Bava Batra 14b).

Did David write psalms to Jonathan?

Most of the psalms are traditionally attributed to Kings David and Solomon, written in Jerusalem during the tenth century BCE. However, many scholars believe that the psalms were really written during and after the Babylonian Exile, not by David and Solomon at all. They were a literary genre that did not exist at the time attributed to King David. On this evidence, David did not write a psalm to Jonathan. While David wrote many Psalms, he did so to praise or express repentance to God, and did not write them to other humans. There is only a lament for Jonathan recorded in 2 Samuel 1.
