Travers undergoes chemotherapy

Mary Travers, 67, of Peter, Paul and Mary, is undergoing chemotherapy for a form of leukemia, but a full remission is expected within a few months, her publicist, Ken Sunshine, said Tuesday.

“Mary looks forward to touring again with the trio soon and is grateful for the well wishes that have come to her from all over the world,” the statement said. No other details were released.

The trio, composed of Peter Yarrow, Noel Paul Stookey and Travers, have dates set for a spring 2005 tour beginning Feb. 18 at the Orleans Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, according to their website. There was no comment on whether concert dates would be canceled or rescheduled.
