In 1960, Peter carved out a name for himself in Hollywood, becoming a symbol of the counterculture. In 1963, he made his feature film debut as the romantic lead in “Tammy and the Doctor” before joining the ensemble cast of “The Victors”, a World War II story. “Easy Rider”, a 1969 hit, was one of his biggest pictures and one for which he received critical praise.
