Peter H. Green

In his career as an architect, Peter has witnessed enough close calls, suspicious acts and outright skullduggery to lure him into writing mysteries. In his debut novel, Crimes of Design, architect Patrick MacKenna, Peter’s alter ego, discovers the body of the staunchest advocate for his controversial flood-protected dream project in the site’s storm water pumping station during a record flood in St. Louis. He is forced to become an amateur sleuth to save his career, his family and his very life.

A writer, architect and city planner reared in a family of journalists, Peter found his father’s 400 World War II letters, his humorous war stories, his mother’s writings and his family’s often hilarious doings too good a tale to keep to himself, so he launched a second career as a writer. After years of architectural work and proposal writing for his design firms, he went back to Washington University to study creative writing with such accomplished authors as Catherine Rankovic, Robert Earleywine and Rick Skwiot, resulting in the release in 2005 of his biographical memoir on the hilarious antics and serious achievements of his dad’s World War II adventure, Dad's War with the United States Marines, James A. Rock & Co., Seaboard Press (Florence, SC).

Peter earned a Certificate in Creative Writing and Bachelor of Architecture degree from Washington University, St. Louis, and a B.A. from Yale University. He is Vice President, Programs, for St. Louis Writers Guild (SAME), a member of Sisters in Crime, St. Louis Publishers Association and Missouri Writers Guild. Among design organizations, he is a member of the American Institute of Architects, American Planning Association, American Institute of Certified Planners and past St. Louis Post President and Fellow of the Society of American Military Engineers. Awards include the Distinguished Service Award, St. Louis Post, SAME, and a 2010 Robin Moore Thiess Award for Outstanding Volunteer Service from St. Louis Writers Guild. He lives in St. Louis with his wife, Connie, and has two very young married daughters and three small grandchildren. The life and times of the last pet he owned, “The Night We Ruined the Dog,” can be found on his website.
