Mary, his mother. But this depends upon how you mean "follower". Despite inferences to the contrary in the New Testament (e.g. Mk 3:21), it is clear that Mary loved and followed her son. Jesus' sister (Salome; Mk 6:3; 15:40; 16:1) is the other most likely first female follower. Another possible answer is Mary "Magdalene". Aside from the supposition that Mary may have even been Jesus' wife, the written record would demonstrate that she was "first" among Jesus' followers (Esp. the Gospel of Philip), male or female. Even in the New testament where she is intentionally diminished in importance, she appears more often with Jesus than any other woman and is the first to see him after resurrection (Jn 20:11-18).

Who was the person who raced to the tomb Jesus was buried in with peter and heard that Jesus was not there?
"Peter..., and that other disciple",raced to the garden tomb.after Mary found it empty:-John 202Then she [Mary] runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the otherdisciple,whom Jesus loved,and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him.3Peter therefore went forth, and that otherdisciple, and came to the sepulchre.4So they ["Peter..., and that other disciple",] ran both together: and the otherdiscipledid outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.8Then went in also that otherdisciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.This otherdisciple,was the onewhom Jesus loved [v.2] ,John 2120 Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whomJesuslovedfollowing; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said...v.21... .to Jesus, Lord, and what shallthis man do?22 Jesussaith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is thatto thee? follow thou me.23 Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: .yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, whatis thatto thee?..24 This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true.It is reasonable to assume this disciple "whomJesusloved" outlived all the others.All the disciples died earlier than normal through martyrdom except John who died naturally of old age. This other disciple would therefore have to be John son of Zebbedee.
