Mary Travers (1936 Louisville, Kentucky - ) was the woman in the group Peter, Paul and Mary, the other two members being Peter Yarrow and Noel "Paul" Stookey. Together they formed one of the most successful folk-singing groups of the 1960s.

Mary was a graduate of the Little Red School House. She lived in Greenwich Village, New York City, as a high school student.

The group Peter, Paul and Mary launched in 1961 and broke up in 1970, after which Mary persued a separate solo career. They have periodically performed together on an irregular basis since 1978 and have issued several new albums.

The group was inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 1999.
