A journeyman actor for many years, Peter McCauley is a familiar face on both sides of the Tasman, with a long string of roles in film and television. His gruff, craggy image belies a capacity for sensitivity, and his rich sonorous voice has flattered many a script over the years.

Biography

Peter McCauley’s love of show business began in the guest bar of Wellington’s Alhambra Hotel on Cuba Street, which was run by his parents. Young Peter would be lifted up onto the upstairs counter to lead sing-a-longs for such Irish favourites as Patrick O’Hagan’s ‘Little Old Mud Cabin on the Hill’.

“I had theories on screen acting wrapped in wads of self important integrity, later largely replaced by the old adage; remember your lines and don't bang into the furniture.”
