Stories have been anthologized in Best American Stories and twice received a Pushcart Prize. Peter has been awarded the Rome Prize from the American Academy of Arts and Letters and the American Academy in Rome\, a Guggenheim Fellowship\, and a two-year Lannan Foundation Literary Fellowship. \nHe’s a graduate of the University of Michigan\, Northeastern University School of Law\, and the University of Iowa Writers’ Workshop. Peter is also a former member of the Bolinas\, California Volunteer Fire Department in Bolinas\, California and current member of the Norwich Fire Department\, Norwich\, Vermont.
