Peter Haskell Biography

Actor Peter Haskell has from time to time showed up in theatrical films (he was in two of the three Child's Play flicks), but the lion's share of his work has been on television. Haskell has starred or co-starred in such made-for-TV films as The Ballad of Andy Crocker (1969), The Eyes of Charles Sand (1970), The Phantom of Hollywood (1973), The Night They Took Miss Beautiful (1977) and The Cracker Factory (1979). His many regular weekly series assignments include Bracken's World (1969-71), as producer Kevin Grant, and The Law and Harry McGraw (1987), as assistant district attorney Tyler Chase; he was also seen on a daily basis in the soap operas Ryan's Hope and Rituals. In all of his appearances, Peter Haskell seems to have been born sitting behind an mahogany desk while wearing a three-piece suit. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
