About ten years ago I met Peter Yarrow at a campaign event for a Democrat running for national office. I was a volunteer for the campaign, and I think it was a semi high dollar affair, but since I was working I didn't pay to attend so I couldn't say for sure. One lovely perk was that professional photos were taken of all attendees with Yarrow and the politician, and to my surprise and pleasure they included me in the photos. I still have it tucked away somewhere.

Any number of wonderful PP&M songs were sung that day.
