Well, to make a long story short, Peter Yarrow is Jewish!

Since Peter Yarrow's mother is Jewish, and in Orthodox Judaism and Conservative Judaism, those with a Jewish mother (or those who underwent a halakhic conversion) are considered Jewish, then that makes him Jewish. His father is Jewish too.

Peter Yarrow was born on May 31, 1938 in Manhattan, New York, U.S..

He was a part of the 1960s folk music trio Peter, Paul and Mary. Yarrow co-wrote (with Leonard Lipton) one of the group's greatest hits, ''Puff, the Magic Dragon''.
