Peter Yarrow
From the very beginnings of their trio, Peter Yarrow, Noel "Paul" Stookey and Mary Travers were as concerned with using their music to support social justice as they were with making hits. Away from his work with the folk legends Peter, Paul & Mary, the New York-born Peter Yarrow has continued to commit his time and talent to causes including equal rights, peace, the environment, gender equality, homelessness, hospice care and education. He was responsible for some of the multi-Grammy Award-winning Peter, Paul & Mary's most moving songs: "Puff, the Magic Dragon," "Day is Done," "Light One Candle" and "The Great Mandala."
