When Peter Krause was in high school, he was a skilled track and field athlete and had a pole vaulting injury that ended his athletic career. He became interested in theatre and transferred to New York University and enrolled in the Master of Fine Arts program. He met Aaron Sorkin who was a writer. As a result, he went on to work on Sports Night created by Sorkin. In my opinion, Peter Krause is one of the greatest actors that has ever lived. From what I can see in Six Feet Under, he truly knows how to make a character become real. He plays "Nate Fisher" perfectly and that part has become his signature role. He has become my favorite character on Six Feet Under because the character is so real, as if I know him in real life. Krause is very talented and makes himself so convincing.
