[edit] 1980s

Peter paid the bills as a tour guide at Universal Studios Hollywood. He didn't know it at the time, but this would prove to be the start of something big. While out on the back lot, Peter was overheard by the owner of a recording studio, he thought Peter should get into the Voice Over business. Six months later Peter would record his first job for ABC's "Wild World of Kids". During this time he would also pursue his love of music with a band he co-founded called "Fourth Car Foreign". The band lasted 10 years but never caught on "commercially".[1]

Peter pursued another interest, that of a thoroughbred horse owner. He had been on or around the racetrack since age 4, so it only seemed natural that he would become actively involved in Horse Racing. In the late 90's Peter and his thoroughbred partnership went into business with trainer Warren Stute, the Dean of California Horse Racing, and for five years enjoyed moderate success.[2]

[edit] 2000s

Peter decided to pursue another occupation, this time as a jockey's agent. Once again, one career move has a funny way of leading to another. One morning at a workout, he was approached about a new Horse Racing channel, HRTV. Peter quickly accepted the on-air job and to date is a major part of the Broadcast team. In addition to his HRTV success Peter is enjoying a resurgence in the Voice Over Business including his role in the Sony Image Works, Academy Award Winning Animated Short Film "The Chubbchubbs".[3]
