Draft:Peter Glatzer

• Comment: You have a basic misunderstanding of referencing, and are using that misunderstanding to WP:BOMBARD us with alleged references. I am not going to accept bombardment. You have also been told that IMDB cannot be a reference, North can Hello magazine.
  Nor can PR churnalism, press announcements or concealed press releases. Yes, you have obviously produced seven feature films, but you should have waited for someone to wrote a simple article about you. However, had this been well done I woudl have accepted it.
  This paragraph "Glatzer[24] brought on a list of corporate partners[25] including: Ford Motor Company[26], AOL, Virgin America[27], The Weather Channel, Stonyfield Farm, Estee Lauder, and LG, among others, and partnered with organizations such as Sundance, SXSW, The Anenberg Space for Photography and LACMA. In 2022, he brokered a 2-year partnership with Samsung[28] for SHFT[29] and produced THE BIG PICTURE, a short film[30] series featuring artists like Moby and Zaria Foreman." is plain lazy writing. we don't care that you did this, and have a reference for it. No. What we care about is what the references say about you.
  Why have you sprayed CAPITAL LETTERS all over the place. Please read, understand and apply WP:MOS and use the italics we require.
  You have some significant work to do in both précising this draft and in rewriting it fundamentally so it is not simply a big lost of what you want to tells in your autobiography.. Please do not even consider resubmitting without doing the work. It will be hard work.
  tl;dr If your movies are notable then they will have their own articles. This draft is meant to be about you with references that ae about you with significant coverage in multiple reliable sources 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 21:25, 25 May 2025 (UTC)

His father was born in Vienna and fled the Nazi's to NY as a boy and became a dentist and his mother is an american born english teacher and actress who later became a therapist. His parents divorced when he was 8. He and his siblings (Susan Glatzer a film executive and Jonathan Glatzer a television writer and producer) were raised in North Caldwell New Jersey.

Glatzer graduated from West Essex High School and earned his BA in Government from Skidmore College in 1986. He studied at Oxford University for his Junior year.

In 1987 Glatzer worked on August Wilson’s Fences, which opened on Broadway. He then worked for the executive producer at Lincoln Center Theater on productions such as Mike Nichol’s Waiting for Gadot with Steve Martin and Robbin Williams; Road with Kevin Bacon and Joan Cusack; and David Mamet’s Speed The Plow, among others.

In 1991 he was a director at the Independent Feature Project, a non-profit with a mission to connect filmmakers with festival programmers, distributors, and buyers. There, he helped bring American independent films each year to Cannes, Berlin, Sundance, and other Festivals. While at the IFP, Glatzer  co-founded the Gotham Awards and produced the event for the first four years. In 1994 he was the Executive Director of the Hamptons Film Festival.

The following year, he produced his first film, The Grave, (with Josh Charles, Gabriele Anwar, and Anthony Michael Hall), directed by the Pate Brothers, which premiered at Sundance. He parlayed that into the Pate’s second feature, Deceiver, (with Tim Roth, Renee Zelwegger, Chris Penn, Michael Rooker, Ellen Bursten, and Rosanna Arquette), which premiered at the Venice Film Festival and was released by MGM. He went on to produce five other features, including CATCHING THE SUN, which he executive produced with Leonardo DiCaprio, and sold to Netflix.

After creating the 2009 documentary series Alter Eco for Discovery, he co- founded the media platform, SHFT, with the actor Adrian Grenier, to introduce stories into the mainstream using inspiring narratives in a variety of media.

In 2024, Glatzer approached the United Nations to produce Turning Point, a series of short films based on the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
