Peter Yarrow

Peter Yarrow (May 31, 1938 – January 7, 2025) was an American singer and songwriter who found fame as a member of the 1960s folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary along with Paul Stookey and Mary Travers. Yarrow co-wrote (with Lenny Lipton) one of the group's best known hits, "Puff, the Magic Dragon" (1963). He was also a political activist and supported causes that ranged from opposition to the Vietnam War to school anti-bullying programs. Yarrow was convicted in 1970 of taking "immoral and improper liberties" with a 14-year-old girl, for which he was pardoned in 1981 by President Jimmy Carter. In the 2024 Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown, Yarrow is portrayed by Nick Pupo.
