The William Petersen Appreciation Page - www.billypetersen.com

Towards the end of 2009, you may remember our post featuring the article “The Man behind the CSI Effect”.

Billy was in Idaho during  that time being interviewed for the article and in addition participated in a PSA for the Idaho Drug Court. You can view the video and find out more information by visiting the Idaho Drug Court’s website.

   I moved to the Midwest from halfway round the world for college, mainly to watch Billy in a play!

   Is there any news that he’ll be doing a play next year or something? Is he only contracted to work with Steppenwolf?

     Hi there, not aware of any upcoming plays at the moment. He works with other theatres besides Steppenwolf.

   @Mikelle Sherb
   Hi Mikelle, I’m Kiara, I laughed when I read your comment, as I prepare to head off for college, I find myself listing schools in Chicago, not just because of Billy, I happen to like Chicago.It’s an excellent town all around for theater majors (I’m a plan to major in theater) who don’t want to tackle the monster known as New York City. My family thinks I want to move there just for Billy, and while that is a perk to be able to hopefully to work with the same people he works with, the city itself is more than enough for me. But non the less I understand where you’re comming from!

   p.s: what school are you going to?

   I cannot get the video to play. Can you guys put it up on the WPAP?

     If you download the video (with a right click and save link/target as) instead, you should be fine. It is in wmv format.

   Thanks! That did work only on the VLC player, though and after some great effort. I don’t know what was going wrong, but it works now.

   @Lee Anne
   It downloaded for me fine, but wouldn’t play on Windows Media Player. I clicked on it & hit “open with” and chose VLC player and it worked just fine. Hope that helps.

   Thanks for the instructions.
   The video played fine once I downloaded it to my computer 🙂
