Ron Peer
Screenwriter, Playwright & Filmmaker
A Phoenix native, I attended Arizona State University and received degrees in Business and English. As a result of the Austin Film Festival Screenplay Competition, my semi-finalist script GOODBYE, LOVER was produced by New Regency — with two-time Oscar nominee Roland Joffe (The Mission, The Killing Fields) directing. The film was released in April of '99 in theaters across the country. My second feature, I LOVE YOU, BABY, with Academy Award-winner Maximilian Schell and Mark Keller, was theatrically released in Germany in April 2000. In addition, my thriller, FALLING ROCKS, was shot completely on location in South Africa and aired on German television in the summer of 2000. As a playwright. I have had over twenty plays produced in the Phoenix area, a few of them being FILLING THE CAVITY, LOVE JUICES, and SUBURBAN SEXIST NEO-NAZI SCUM. My satirical short play THEY STOLE HEMINGWAY'S BRAIN has been performed as far away as Czechoslovakia. (Okay, so it's called the Czech Republic now.) Recently, I have been making my own films. My critically-acclaimed short film, THE SPIRITUAL COCKROACH, played at the Damah Film Festival in 2003 and at many other venues. Here I am with cast members Jerry DeShazo and Mitzi Lynton.
Here's a photo from THE TAMING OF THE PUCKS, another short film. 
Under my production company banner, Peerless Communications, I have been creating Video Biographies for various clients from all different walks of life, as well as creating legal and business-related videos.
