Peter Dixon helped to shape a culture of ocean enthusiasts. He was one of the creators of Flipper the dolphin, and wrote the first episode of the popular TV series. He is also the author of the biggest-selling surf book worldwide, The Complete Book of Surfing. Peter has written many other books and produced several documentaries. After meeting Phil Eastly - one of the first to dive into a tuna net to rescue trapped dolphins - Peter was inspired to write Hunting the Dragon.
He lives by the sea with his wife, Sarah, and they divide their time between California and New Zealand.
