Mary Travers, best known as one-third of the legendary folk-pop group, Peter, Paul, and Mary, has died at the age of 72. The BBC World Service reports that the cause of death was leukemia, which she had battled for a number of years.
It was my privilege to grow up in a household where her records were often played. I will never forget the sound of her soaring voice.
Her NYT obit is here.
