Mary Mayo was an American actress and singer in the field of jazz, folk, exotica, easy listening and pop music. She studied voice, piano and musical theory at New York's Juilliard School. She had an amazing voice with a range of four octaves. She could sing baritone, tenor, alto soprano and high violin.
Her "Moon Gas" LP became a breakthrough jazz classic with her ethereal wordless vocals that she cut with Dick Hyman in 1963. In 1971, she joined the Hillside Singers, and with daughter Lorri, recorded the worldwide Coca-Cola hit "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing".
