dan peterson BIO

Dan Peterson grew up in a small town in Southern California. He was adopted at birth and through a weird series of events was connected to his Hollywood birth parents. He attended UCSB in business and after finishing college he ended up in Hollywood to pursue an acting career. His career started out at a nightclub in Los Angeles called "Chippendales". As he has been quoted "it is all about timing" he was tall dark and handsome with blue eyes and a mustache. It was the time of "Magnum PI and Tom Selleck" He soon became the face of Chippendales. Called Mr. Chippendales by the owner Steve Banerjee. He traveled the world representing Chippendales as a model and spokesperson. Soon after he created a calendar company with business partner and actor, Wolf Larson. Skin Deep became a successful company that competed with the famous Chippendales Calendar. His close relationship with Steve Banerjee ended as scandals started to break Chippendales apart. Dan Peterson became a well-respected Photographer and is to this day. The knowledge he learned early on about film and working as a model and actor created a perfect fit. Still in front of the camera time to time, he feels the most comfortable shooting and spending time with his family.
