BIOGRAPHY OF PETER DINKLAGE
Peter Hayden Dinklage was born in Morristown, New Jersey, on June 11, 1969. Son of an insurer, John Carl Dinklage, and a music teacher, Diane Dinklage, Peter has achondroplasia, a common form of dwarfism. I 135 cm in height however, did not stop him from pursuing his dreams and, a few years after graduating in Dramatic Arts at the University of Bennington, in 1995 debuts on the big screen with the role of Tito in the film He shoots in Manhattan.
The first important roles arrive in the two-year period 2005-2006. In FX’s controversial plastic surgery drama Nip / Tuck she plays Marlowe Sawyer, hired by Sean and Julia as the nanny of their baby, born with a severe physical handicap that he doesn’t see as an obstacle to a happy life. The CBS science fiction series Threshold, which lasted just one season, instead entrusted him with the role of Arthur Ramsey, a mathematical genius with a penchant for unpredictability, alcohol and women. A character that is partly reminiscent of the other that a few years later, in 2011, made Dinklage an international celebrity: Tyrion Lannister, also known as The Elf, in HBO’s fantasy drama Game of Thrones (Games of Throne). For this role he won both the Emmy and the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series.
The petite stature makes of Dinklage the perfect interpreter of the dwarf Trumpkin in the Disney saga The Chronicles of Narnia. He also plays the bad guy, Bolivar Trask, in the film about X-Men Days of a future past. Interpretations such as voice actor. It is the voice of Captain Gutt in the animated film Ice Age 4: Continents Adrift, and in 2014 fascinates the Travelers of the Destiny video game as the original voice of their minute travel companion, Spectrum. In Italy the character has the voice of Gaetano Varcasia, frequent Dinklage’s voice actor, struck down by a tumor on November 10, 2014 at the age of 55. Married since 2005 to theater director Erica Schmidt, with whom he had a daughter, Dinklage lives with his family in New York and is a vegetarian. In a video for the non-profit organization PETA he explains that the choice comes from his deep love for animals. For this reason he is also among the supporters of the Farm Sanctuary. However, the rights of dogs, cats and all other animals are not the only ones that interest him. In 2012, on the occasion of an interview with the New York Times, Dinklage he referred to himself as a “a spokesperson for the rights of small people”.
