Биография
Peter Green brings over 27 years of experience in Hollywood as a film and television producer, development and production executive at Paramount and Disney, and Head of Programming for the cable network G4. For the seventh consecutive year, he created and produced the live 24-hour television and streaming broadcast spanning all 24 time zones globally for Al Gore and The Climate Reality Project. Before that, he served as Senior Vice President of Production and Development at Paramount Pictures' Paramount Famous Productions, where he produced Mean Girls 2 and Road Trip: Beer Pong. He also developed scripts for Clueless 2, Shooter 2, The Second Wives Club, Naked Gun 4 ¼, and Bad New Bears: Sudden Death Soccer.
Before joining Paramount in 2008, Green was President and Producer at Fountain Productions, managing a development slate of over 20 projects including Parent Trap 2 and Herbie Rides Again for Walt Disney Pictures. He also developed and produced Inspector Gadget 2, Disney's first live-action DVD Premiere, which was filmed and post-produced entirely in Australia.
At ABC, Green executive produced the critically acclaimed and highly rated TV movies The Miracle Worker, starring David Strathairn; Ladies and the Champ, featuring Oscar-winner Olympia Dukakis; and Geppetto, an original TV musical by Oscar-winning composer Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Godspell) starring Drew Carey and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Earlier, he spent three years as Vice President of Production for Disney Telefilms, overseeing the development and production of about 35 telefilms ranging from $3.2 million to $14 million for ABC's Wonderful World of Disney. Highlights include the top-rated Annie, for which Green enlisted theater director Rob Marshall (Chicago) for his film-directing debut. The film featured Tony-winners Kathy Bates, Alan Cumming, Kristen Chenoweth, and Victor Garber, earning a Golden Globe nomination and 12 Emmy nominations. Green also guided Jerry Bruckheimer's entry into long-form television with MaxQ: Emergency Landing and facilitated Justin Timberlake's television debut in Model Behavior. His career at Disney began in development, production, and casting at Disney's Hollywood Pictures on films such as Crimson Tide, The Rock, While You Were Sleeping, Evita, Nixon, Eddie, The Associate, and The Hand That Rocks the Cradle. He started as an independent casting associate on A League of Their Own and Cool World.
In 2003, Green played a key role in transforming the cable network G4 from a niche video game channel into a male lifestyle network reaching 55 million homes. As Senior Vice President of Programming and Production, he oversaw all programming and executive produced G4's 12 original shows, including the world's first video game awards show, G-Phoria.
A native of Chicago, Peter Green is a graduate of Wesleyan University.
