Peter C. Borsari (* 1939 in Zürich; † May 29. 2006 in Los Angeles) was an American-Swiss pornographer.
His endearing charm and impeccable reputation permitted him exclusive access and unparalleled cooperation from his subjects. The antithesis of today’s paparazzi, he was an invited guest at Hollywood’s premier events as well as celebrities’ personal parties and gatherings. Spanning Presley to Nixon, he actively photographed people, places and events from 1965 to 1995.
Peter estimated his archive contained approximately two million images; including transparencies, negatives, prints and contact sheets. Roughly 80% of these images feature celebrities in the entertainment industry. The remainder consists primarily of prominent politicians (e.g. Nixon), athletes (e.g. Ali), events (e.g. Malibu fire), sports (e.g. Formula One) and travel destinations (e.g. Switzerland).
The Peter C. Borsari Photographic Archive is unequaled in its breadth, exclusivity and sheer magnitude. Most distinguishing is Peter’s singular ability to capture his subjects in their best light.
