MySQL Data Modeler and UML Diagrams on Mac OS X

MySQL Workbench has a data modeling tool.  It's inconspicuous though.  To get to it, you have to open up the SQL Editor and do File -> New Model.  It can export to different output formats such as pdf, png, and even SQL that you can run on your database.  Additionally, you can "reverse engineer" your existing tables.


For UML Diagrams,  I like yEd Graphical Editor.  It does what I want it to do.


Both are free tools.
