Peter Paul and Mary helped us to change the world. At least for awhile. Their songs moved us, their performances roused us, and their activism inspired us. To say that Peter Paul and Mary defined a generation would be minimizing their influence and reach their appeal spans generations. They made music for us for almost 50 years, and continue to do so even after Mary's death. Peter Yarrow's and Noel Paul Stookey's book, Fifty Years In Music and Life reminds us of their contribution to our culture, to our canon. Peter Paul and Mary's songs prove that simple acts can change our world.

In conversation with another legend, Theodore Bikel. Bikel's performances are indelible in theater, in film and television, and in his records. He's got a great deal in common with the love of folk music and activism of Peter Paul and Mary, and has said, "I prefer to make common cause with those whose weapons are guitars, banjos, fiddles and words."

Writers Bloc is profoundly honored to host Peter Yarrow, Noel Paul Stookey and Theodore Bikel.
