Peter trained as an architect and became affiliated with the Chicago based firm of Perkins & Will. After an early retirement, he began investigating sculpture as an alternative medium of expression. He chose the animal instead of the human form. Working in plasteline, for bronze, he had a special empathy for otters, cheetah and larger primates.
