New York, New York

Peter Ahern grew up in the colonial suburbs of Massachusetts, where he spent most of his childhood raking leaves and wishing he had cable television. After high-school, he attended Pratt Institute and began incorporating his warped, nostalgic aesthetic into hand-drawn animations. His degree film "Down to the Bone" resulted in a Student Academy Award nomination.

Peter currently works as a freelance artist in NYC, and still hopes to one day have cable television.
