Peter Yarrow - "Peter Paul & Mary"


Peter Yarrow (born May 31, 1938) is an American singer who found fame with the 1960s folk music trio Peter, Paul and Mary. Yarrow co-wrote (with Leonard Lipton) one of the group's most famous songs, Puff, the Magic Dragon. He is also a political activist, lending his support to causes ranging from opposition to the Vietnam war to the creation of Operation Respect. Peter Yarrow was born in New York City, New York. He graduated from New York City's High School of Music and Art, now called LaGuardia High School. His singing career began after graduating from Cornell University, in 1959. Soon, Yarrow met Noel "Paul" Stookey and Mary Travers in New York City's Greenwich Village, center of the mid-20th century American folk music revival. By 1962, Warner Bros. Records released the trio's first album, the eponymous Peter, Paul & Mary. The album remained in the Top Ten for ten months, in the Top Twenty for two years, and sold more than two million copies. The group has toured extensively and recorded numerous albums, both live and in the studio. In October of 1969, Yarrow married Mary Beth McCarthy. He has two adult children. In 2000, he founded Operation Respect. On behalf of Operation Respect, Yarrow has appeared, pro bono, in areas as diverse as Hong Kong, Vietnam, Bermuda, Croatia, South Africa, Egypt, Argentina, and Canada. In all, the program has been presented to many educational leaders and more than 10 million children. In some form, the project has reached nearly 1/3 of all elementary and middle schools in America, at least 20,000 schools, in all. In 2003, a Congressional resolution recognized the Yarrow's achievements and those of Operation Respect. The Congressional Caucus gave him a standing ovation. In August 2006, he met with representatives of 35 organizations, including the League of Cities, the Academy of Education, Americans for the Arts, and Newspapers in Education, to unite them in a commitment to “...shifting the American educational paradigm, to educating the whole child, not just in academics, but in character, heart, social-emotional development. As we Jews say, `let him be a mensch first; everything else will work out'". Yarrow has appeared as a performer on 61 various albums, including his daughter Bethany's 2003 CD, Rock Island.

3/26 - Art Astor

Art Astor is a renowned entrepreneur and collector. He was born in Fresno to Armenian-immigrant parents. After a tour in the Army Air Corps (earning him the Air Medal with four clusters) he took a communications degree from University of Southern California in 1949 on the G.I. Bill.

Degree in hand, he started in TV as what he described as `the Armenian Dick Clark,' but that was more than 50 years ago. Since then his efforts have mostly been off the air in radio sales and management. He has been involved in the Southern California broadcast industry ever since.

By the late seventies, Astor was in partnership which owned KIK-FM, a country station out of Orange County. By 1982, he had bought out his partners and, with the purchase of an AM/FM operation in the Bay Area, he became the proud owner of the Astor Broadcast Group.  In this age of corporate broadcasting, where programming people in New York issue memos every day on what to air to people 3,000 miles away, the Astor Broadcast Group remains one of the last of the independent entrepreneurships in Southern California.

BIZ FED LIVE ACROSS AMERICA

We tackle the importance of the US Census count, which happens every 10 years and officially gets under way this month in LA County and around the country. There are millions of federal dollars at stake in ensuring an accurate count - as the census is used as a basis to dole out funds in areas including education, social services, job training and transportation. Los Angeles County lost more money than any other county because of undercounts in the 2000 census—an estimated $636 million from eight programs whose funding levels are most affected by the census.  Our guests will be founding chair David Fleming and BizFed member Fran Inman, senior vice president of Majestic Realty and chair-elect of the LA Area Chamber.
