Biography

Peter Gaffney, son of computer pioneer John Gaffney and Carol Crandall Gaffney, was an editor for the "Harvard Lampoon," where his famed "Leap of Faith" gained legendary status, and later for the "National Lampoon."

He spent five years as a writer and creative consultant at MTV, often collaborating with Glenn Eichler to create Clio-winning promo campaigns and scripting multiple years of "The Video Music Awards."

After serving as writer and senior story editor for the first five seasons of "Rugrats," earning an Emmy and the Jewish Televimage Award, Gaffney has worked extensively in television animation for both children and adults.

His work also spans film writing, video game creation, book editing ("The Herodotus File"), and developing new media concepts—both independently and with Japhet Asher, former vice-chairman of (Colossal) Pictures and creator of MTV's "Liquid Television."

He is married to his life partner, Sherry Caris. They divide their time between Hollywood and their mountain cottage near Lake Arrowhead, California, where they live with their two mischievous cats, Tiger and Raleigh, who star in their own comic strip: https://www.facebook.com/TheAdventuresOfTigerTheCat/photos/a.816917798334350.1073741830.766449600047837/816917825001014/?type=3&theater

Recently, Peter was story editor on the Amazon series "Bug Diaries" and worked as a staff writer for Disney Jr. He is currently writing for several shows, including the reboot of Nickelodeon's "Rugrats," Mattel's "Thomas & Friends," and an upcoming Nickelodeon series.
