Odetta & Larry was a short-lived blues-folk duo in the mid-1950s. It consisted of Odetta and Larry Mohr, the former of whom became the most well-known in ensuing decades.

Their only musical output for posterity was recorded live at San Francisco's Tin Angel nightclub in 1953/1954 and first issued on two 7 inch EPs and a 10 inch LP on the Fantasy label.

Lawrence B. Mohr later earned a Ph.D. in political science and was Professor on the political science faculty at the University of Michigan.
