WILLIAM PETERSEN

Renowned Chicago Actor / Rabid Cubs Fan.

When approached about helping out with Beyond the Ivy, Bill replied, "It's about Wrigley?....Hell with it, let's do it!!"

Billy's acting career has spanned 3 decades of quality work on both stage and screen. (His Remains Theater was originally based out of the current Ginger Man Tap a block from Wrigley Field.)

His screen work includes the films Manhunter, To Live and Die in L.A. and The Contender, but he's recently found his most popular success in the role of the curious criminologist, Gil Grissom, on the highly rated CBS show, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.

The Evanston native's rich narration provides the driving force behind the Beyond the Ivy video. As a resident of numerous apartments directly facing the ballpark in his formative years, on matters regarding Wrigley, he knows of what he speaks.
