The author of "Broadway General Manager: Demystifying the Most Important and Least Understood Role in Show Business," he is a veteran general manager of Broadway and off-Broadway shows, and has worked with many award-winning producers, directors, authors, stars, and designers.

Peter is a graduate of Yale College and the Commercial Theater Institute, and has been a member of the Broadway League, and a Tony Award voter. With his wife Ahna and Scottish terrier Dickens, he lives in New York City and in Upstate New York, where he has amassed a large collection of Scottish terrier objects, including salt and pepper shakers, door stops, vintage posters, embroidered pillows, candles, napkins, wrapping paper, stationery, boot scrapers, crockery, a child's antique rocker, pajamas, sheets, slippers, a bath mat, and a weathervane— To name just a few.
