About Peter

Peter R.J. Deyell is an American filmmaker, with a diverse background in movies, television, radio and theatre, including acting, writing, directing and producing. He grew up wanting to learn everything about show business so he has credits in many different areas.

Born in Brooklyn, New York, Deyell began his career in show business as a child, when he auditioned for the role of Tiny Tim, in an NBC musical version of A Christmas Carol, starring Basil Rathbone as Scrooge. Deyell did not get the part, but Rathbone was so impressed with the youngster that he put him in touch with his talent agent. That introduction eventually led to roles for Deyell on the New York stage with the likes of Steve Allen, Eve Arden, Danny Kaye, Bob Hope, Ethel Merman, Nat "King" Cole, Edward Mulhare, Mary Martin, Victor Borge, Robert Q. Lewis, Pat Boone, Patrice Munsel, and Jimmy Rogers.

During the last phase of live television in the late 1950s, Deyell performed on the NBC series Frontiers of Faith including Moon Flight #1, and Above All Liberties. He appeared in many TV commercials and skits on the NBC broadcast of The Patti Page Show. He also played the Son, in the live television series Sid Caesar Invites You, which starred Sid Caesar and Imogene Coca, and was written by Carl Reiner, Mel Brooks and Neil Simon.

Deyell's first feature film, as an actor, was Paramount Pictures' That Kind of Woman with Tab Hunter and Sophia Loren, produced by Carlo Ponti and directed by Sidney Lumet. On NBC's Shirley Temple's Storybook series, Deyell performed in productions of Kim, The Prince and the Pauper, and Madeline. As a young adult, he portrayed Peter on the TV series Mr. Novak starring James Franciscus. He had his first screen kiss in the Sam Katzman feature of the Hank Williams biopic Your Cheatin' Heart, which co-starred George Hamilton and Susan Oliver. He also had a recurring role as the character Mr. Muscles on the Emmy Award-winning TV series Dusty's Attic (a.k.a. Dusty's Treehouse).

When Deyell was a teenager, he moved with his family to Los Angeles, and began working on an independent film with a group of friends. A story about the project in The Hollywood Reporter caught the attention of a young director named Steven Spielberg. Spielberg contacted Deyell, and hired him as assistant director on a short film that Spielberg was directing, Slipstream, starring Tony Bill. Slipstream was never completed, but through that association, Deyell introduced Spielberg to cinematographer Allen Daviau, who later teamed up with Spielberg to shoot several critically acclaimed films such as E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, The Color Purple, Twilight Zone: The Movie, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and others.

Deyell continued acting, and was signed as a contract player at 20th Century Fox Television. While there, he shot a test pilot for the original TV series Batman, in which he auditioned for the role of Robin, with Lyle Waggoner as Batman. Unfortunately for Deyell, the role of Robin went to actor Burt Ward, although Deyell's screen test can still be seen in the documentaries Holy Batmania and Hollywood Screen Tests: Take One produced by Kevin Burns. Warner’s Home Entertainment is releasing a BluRay version. Later, Deyell was cast in the recurring role of the Delivery Boy on the long-running prime time soap opera Santa Barbara. He also appeared on the hit TV series Newhart. Deyell's acting career was temporarily interrupted when he served in the U.S. Coast Guard Reserve, eventually working his way up to the rank of First Class Petty Officer. He later accepted a commission and served with distinction as a U.S. Coast Guard Reserve Officer. Deyell is a life member of the Reserve Officers Association.

He is an Eagle Scout with Palms and is a Life Member of the National Eagle Scouts Association.

In his 20s, Deyell began to transition from acting to production jobs behind the camera, including positions in make-up, assistant directing and directing. At age 20, he was the youngest vice president of production in motion picture history at Cinevest International, one of several production companies at General Service Studios in Hollywood. There, he was responsible for up to five feature films in development and production simultaneously.

Deyell's first experimental film, The Diabolical Destiny, starred Elizabeth Baur (Ironside) Jonathan West, ASC (director of photography for Star Trek: The Next Generation) and Janice Fisher (writer of Lost Boys). For Deyell's first feature film, he produced, adapted and directed Elaine May's Not Enough Rope starring Zalman King (Red Shoe Diaries), Florence Lake (Lassie), and Sandy Brown (General Hospital). Other feature films included Zoo Ship, The Ghost Dance, and the documentary Meet John Wooden. Deyell directed the feature film Lucky Angel, starring Betsy Monroe (Mrs. Doubtfire), Robert Abrams (Hot Springs Hotel), and Ted Kurtz (Howard the Duck) which was released theatrically in Europe. Another feature was The Kidz Who Knew Too Much for Phantom Scotsman Films LLC, for producers George McIndoe (The Bank Job) and Heidi Crane (Thirteen Conversations About One Thing). As one of the producers of the feature film Road to Nowhere, Monte Hellman (Two Lane Blacktop) was awarded a Golden Lion award at the Venice International Film Festival.

As a writer, producer and director, Deyell has worked on over 100 commercials and music videos with musical artists such as The Commodores, WAR, Electric Light Orchestra, Paul Anka, Ringo Starr, Stevie Wonder, Smoky Robinson, Michael Jackson, Rufus, Chaka Kahn and Helen Reddy.
