About this user

Peter S. Fischer is a prolific writer producer with over 25 years of experience in network television. Among his many credits is "Murder, She Wrote" which he created with the well known television team of Richard Levinson and William Link. He also served as Executive Producer for the first seven years and contributed over 50 scripts. As producer he was the winner of two Golden Globe awards from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for Best Television Drama and also received an "Edgar" from The Mystery Writers of America. In addition to "Murder, She Wrote", the author was also involved for many years with "Colombo" starring Peter Falk, first as Story Editor and later as producer. During this time, he wrote 12 ninety minute and 2 one hour episodes for the series. His other credits as a writer-producer include the nine-hour miniseries "Once an Eagle" starring Sam Elliott, the 5 hour miniseries "Black Beauty", as well as several movies-of-the-week. His first movie-of-the-week "The Last Child" was nominated for an Emmy in the category of Best Television Movie. Other series created by Mr. Fischer include "The Eddie Capra Mysteries", "Blackes Magic" starring Hal Linden and Harry Morgan, and "The Law and Harry McGraw" starring Jerry Orbach and Barbara Babcock. His writing credits include, among many others, "Marcus Welby, M.D.", "Kojak", "Barreta", "Mac Millan and Wife" and "Ellery Queen". The latter was his first producing credit. A graduate of The Johns Hopkins University, he is the father of 3, grandfather of 6 and currently lives with his wife Lucille in the Monterey Bay area of Central California.

In 2009, Mr. Fischer came out of retirement to write the political thriller "The Blood of Tyrants". It is must reading for those who love this country and the freedom it represents. It is available on this website, along with the follow-up, "The Terror of Tyrants". Both are page-turning, thought provoking novels concerning the dangerous direction this country is now heading.

In 2011, Mr. Fischer released book one of "The Hollywood Murder Mysteries", "Jezebel in Blue Satin". The series continues in book two, "We Don't Need no Stinking Badges".
