Mary Dies at 72

Honorees Paul Stookey, Mary Travers and Peter Yarrow of Peter, ...
Mary Travers, a member of Peter, Paul and Mary trio that played a prominent role in the 1960's folk music revival and helped popularize the work of such artists as Bob Dylan, has died, according to media reports on September 16, 2009. Honorees Paul Stookey, Mary Travers and Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary arrived at the 2006 Songwriters Hall of Fame induction ceremony at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York in this photo from June 15, 2006. I remember growing up with the songs from this trio, and they became a part of my young music listening life.
