Peter Greene ran away from home when he was 15.\u00a0 Mr. Greene didn’t decide on an acting career until he was in his mid-20s.\u00a0 Peter Greene worked in both television and feature films throughout his career.\u00a0 His first television appearance was on the series Hardball<\/em>.\u00a0 Mr. Greene made his feature film debute in Laws of Gravity<\/em>.\u00a0 Peter Greene became best known as a character actor, often playing villains.<\/p>\n

I first became aware of Peter Greene in Pulp Fiction.\u00a0 Mr. Greene was such a great villain.\u00a0 Even in a role with small screen-time, Peter Greene made an impact.\u00a0 My favorite Peter Greene appearance might be in Justified<\/em>.\u00a0 He appeared with Timothy Olyphant in the very first scene which set the tone of the series.\u00a0 Of course any time Peter Greene appeared on-screen, it brought a smile to my face.\u00a0 I just knew that his character was up to something.<\/p>\n
