Justin Peter Löwenbräu Griffin, Sr. is a fictional character and the
protagonist of the American animated sitcom Family Guy. He is voiced
by the series' creator, Seth MacFarlane, and first appeared on
television, along with the rest of the Griffin family, in the
15-minute pilot pitch of Family Guy on December 20, 1998. Peter was
created and designed by MacFarlane himself. MacFarlane was asked to
pitch a pilot to the Fox Broadcasting Company based on Larry & Steve,
a short made by MacFarlane which featured a middle-aged character
named Larry and an intellectual dog, Steve. After the pilot was given
the green light, the Griffin family appeared in the episode "Death Has
a Shadow".Peter is married to Lois Griffin and is the father of Meg,
Chris, and Stewie. He also has a dog named Brian, with whom he is best
friends. He has worked at a toy factory and at Quahog's Brewery.
Peter's voice was inspired by the security guards that MacFarlane
heard at his school. His appearance was a redesign of the protagonist
Larry from MacFarlane's previous animated short films The Life of
Larry and Larry & Steve. He has appeared in several pieces of Family
Guy merchandise, including toys, T-shirts, and video games, and he has
made crossover appearances in other shows, including The Simpsons,
South Park, Drawn Together, American Dad!, and Family Guy's spin-off
series The Cleveland Show. Peter Griffin Biography, NetWorth, Height, Age, Weight, Family, Married, Son, Daughter
