MA. Peter was just featured on MTV True Life as "the Top Acting Coach in NYC" pretty BIG TIME...but he didn't hesitate to fly out to Minnesota in the middle of winter to teach a group of devoted local actors at Bloomington Civic Theater how to put their theater skills in front of the intimate and unblinking camera. I could go on forever but Bloomington Civic Theater's hilarous talent Bonnie Erickson summed up Peter's workshop most succintly: .........................."FANTASTIC!!! It was better than SEX!" After she uhh...recovered...had a smoke..whatever...she went on to say: ........"The best two days I've spent in a long time. Peter gave us pearls, pearls of performing wisdom....I have grown to appreciate so many things. But I have truly come to understand the value of a good film director and the entire editing process.
