Peter, Paul and Mary var en amerikansk trio, bildad 1961 i New York. I trion, som ofta förkortas PP&M, ingick Mary Travers (född 9 november 1936 i Louisville, Kentucky, död 16 september 2009 i Danbury, Connecticut), Paul Stookey (född 30 december 1937 i Baltimore, Maryland) och Peter Yarrow (född 31 maj 1938 på Manhattan, New York). Deras storhetstid var 1960-talet, men gruppen har även existerat senare. Gruppen var engagerad i fredsrörelsen och medborgarrättsrörelsen och sjöng bland annat på den stora marschen till Washington 1963 där Martin Luther King höll sitt berömda tal.[1]
Trion spelade och sjöng mest så kallad amerikansk folkmusik, och gjorde melodiösa, flerstämmiga tolkningar av andra artister som Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, Pete Seeger, Gordon Lightfoot och Tom Paxton, men de skrev även eget material.
Bland deras mest kända låtar kan "Early Morning Rain", "Lemon Tree", "Puff, the Magic Dragon", "If I Had a Hammer", "Blowin' in the Wind" och "Leaving on a Jet Plane" nämnas. Gruppmedlemmarna har också givit ut soloalbum.
Mary Travers avled i leukemi den 16 september 2009.[2]
