He may not be a household name (yet!) but Peter's name has graced
the pages of more than a few articles in the mainstream press and
on the web. Below are articles from newspapers, magazines, press
kits and websites relating to Peter or his works. Some of them have
the audacity to just mention Peter briefly instead of devoting a
whole piece to him. In those cases I've bolded Peter's name
so you can skip the drivel and get to the most important parts!
Peter's name is also bolded in the list below for the articles
that he wrote!
Many thanks go to Jana, who tracked down most of the articles
pertaining to Peter's pre-Highlander work. If you happen
to come across other mentions of Our Guy, drop me a line at AdamMethos@aol.com
