Ferron, born Deborah Foisy on , is a Canadian folk singer-songwriter and poet.

==Early life==
She learned to play guitar at age 11,〔Schwartz, Ellen. Born a Woman, Polestar Press 1988 ISBN 0-919591-25-6 p43〕 and left home at 15. Ferron attended Total Ed, an alternative high school in Vancouver, graduating in 1973 (Thomas 2002). Of her earliest musical memories, she wrote, "my mother's French Canadian family played music. I heard guitars and banjo and accordion and scrub board and my grandfather clogging. I put it together...music meant fun, meant love and laughter. I started writing songs when I was 10, never saved them after some kids at school found them and teased me about it. I wrote songs and remembered them and when I forgot them I felt they were not important anymore. The next time I saved a song I was 18. It was 1970." It was with that first saved song that she made her professional debut in 1975, playing the song "Who Loses" at a benefit for the Women's Press Gang, a feminist publishing house.
In 1971, Foisy changed her name to Ferron when one of her friends had a dream in which she was called Ferron.〔http://www.glbtq.com/arts/ferron.html〕 She is openly lesbian.〔
