If it wasn't for this man, Peter Benchley that is, I would have never fully discovered my love for sharks and the oceans they live in. To him I owe so much, and I just wish I could have met this brilliant man just once...

Peter Benchley is my favorite author, and Jaws is my favorite book. I've read every novel he's writtten, and lament that I'll never see him in real life.

I met him, and his family, in my honeymoon in 1997... we were in french polinisea. We could not believe when we saw Mr. Benchley just beside us in such a small plane landing on Rangiroa.... He was reading the local newspaper, where we (me and my husband) ,could recognize a familiar picture on the front page... Then my husband, who is much more an intruder than me :-) said : "is that you on the news paper?" and with a smile and a kind look he nodded.... I'll never forget that... :-))

His book, The Beast was just brilliant too. Nothing but story. Unfortunately "improved" by Hollywood when it was filmed. Would be a great movie if anyone decent had the guts to make it. properly RIP Mr. Benchley. As a kid Jaws terrified me and I was devastated when Treece was killed at the end of The Deep. Thats skill and my love of books has continued since. Thank you Sir. I miss you and would have loved to have been part of your "Squid Squad"

I got into reading as aan 11 year old because of Mr. Benchley. He really got me interested in the lakes and oceans. I must have read Jaws a dozen or so times. Then I read the Island and The Deep.

Peter Benchley needs a real tribute like JAWS The Beginning posted at clubzone in forum

I'm still saddened that he's gone; one of the last great American novelists. I love the film of Jaws but people, please, READ the book as well.

Despite his failing health it makes me happy that he was able to attend Jawsfest and see what his writing and story and movie meant to so many people over the years. Must have moved him a fair bit.
