Peter Anthony Luck (5 January 1944 – 6 September 2017) was an Australian author, TV journalist, producer and presenter.
Career
As a television personality, among the shows he worked on were This Day Tonight, Four Corners, Sunday, Inside Edition and Today Tonight, Bicentennial Minutes … A Time to Remember, This Fabulous Century, The Australians, 50 Fantastic Years and Where Are They Now?.[1]
This Fabulous Century was a 37-part series produced by the Seven Network, after Luck's previous employer, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation had declined, believing that a series that relied so heavily on black-and-white film, when the country had only recently switched to colour television, would not be successful. It was shown on Sunday nights on Seven, and became the hit of 1979.[2]
Personal life
Peter Luck was raised in Adelaide, South Australia, and attended Findon High School. Luck was married to Penny for 43 years, and they had a son and daughter.[3] Luck suffered a stroke which left him with limited speech and physical incapacity.
Death
Luck died on 6 September 2017 at Concord Repatriation General Hospital.[4] He had cancer and Parkinson's disease when he died.[3]
