When I was in the hair business I produced huge spectacular shows. Film is just another form of production.
  • (May 2007) Received a star at the Hollywood Walk of Fame on May 1, 2007.
  • Produced Barbra Streisand's critically-reviled (though commercially successful) 1974 album "ButterFly" in collaboration with Tom Scott, Larry Carlton, Lee Holdridge, Hank Cicalo, John Bahler, King Errisson, etc. Songs on the album included: Love in the Afternoon / Guava Jelly / Grandma's Hands / I Won't Last a Day Without You / Jubilation / Simple Man / Life On Mars / Since I Don't Have You / Crying Time / Let the Good Times Roll
  • Father, with Christine Forsyth-Peters, of Caleigh Peters and Skye Peters.
  • When Kevin Smith was hired as writer for the "Superman" movie back in 1997, he had several discussions with Peters about the film. Peters told Smith that he didn't want Superman to wear the suit, he didn't want him to fly, and he wanted Superman to fight a giant spider in the end. When Smith left the project, the "Superman" movie never got made but, in 1999, Jon Peters produced Wild Wild West (1999) which had the heroes attacked by a giant spider in the end.
