Biography
Peter Lance first reported for his hometown paper, The Daily News in Newport R.I. where he won The Sevellon Brown Award from the New England A.P. News Executives Association. After getting an M.S. at Columbia J-School he worked as a producer for WNET + WABC where he won two NY Area Emmys, The RFK Award and The National Emmy for Community service. In 1978 he got his J.D. from Fordham School of Law, then spent nearly a decade as a producer and correspondent for ABC News on 20/20, Nightline + World News Tonight where he won two News & Documentary Emmys. Mid-career Lance wrote fiction as a screenwriter + novelist. After 9/11 he returned to journalism and wrote 4 investigative books for HarperCollins critical of the FBI in counterterrorism & org. crime. In 2020 Vanity Fair published HOMICIDE AT ROUGH POINT, Lance's investigation of the murder of Eduardo Tirella by Doris Duke in 1966 which Lance adapted into a 438 page book in early 2021. In July, while in Newport, Lance met Bob Walker, former paperboy for Doris Duke who said he'd not only heard the lead-up to Tirella's death but confronted Duke moments later. He came forward to The Newport PD after reading Lance's book and, as reported by VanityFair.com and The A.P., the case has now been reopened.
