Snow was born at Dublin, the son of Brigadier J. F. Snow, CBE. He spent part of his early childhood in Benghazi, Libya, where his father was stationed. His father became deputy Fortress commander at Gibraltar in 1956.
Snow was a foreign correspondent, Defence and Diplomatic Correspondent, Diplomatic Editor and occasional newscaster for Britain's Independent Television News (ITN). He also appeared as an election analyst and co-presenter of ITN's General Election programmes throughout the late 1960s and 1970s. He joined the organisation in 1962. He gained a much higher profile after he was recruited in 1979 to be the main presenter of the new late evening BBC Two in-depth news programme Newsnight, which began almost a year later than planned, in January 1980. He left Newsnight in 1997 and presented Tomorrow's World (with Philippa Forrester) and the BBC Radio 4 quizzes Masterteam and Brain of Britain, amongst other projects.
At the Royal Television Society in 1998 Snow won the Judges’ Award for services to broadcasting.
Peter Snow, son of Sir Frederick Snow, was educated at Bloxham School in Oxfordshire, where he showed an early talent for painting and was involved in designing sets for school plays. In 1946, he studied briefly at Goldsmiths College and worked as a journalist on the South London Press before doing his national service with the Royal Engineers in the Middle East. Following his time in the army he gained a scholarship to the Slade, studying until 1953 and joining the staff in 1957. He was head of theatre design, succeeding Robert Medley.
Snow started working in theatre in 1951, when he designed Love's Labour's Lost for the Southwark Shakespeare Festival. In 1954, Snow worked alongside Joan Littlewood at her Theatre Workshop in Stratford East. Two of his most admired designs for Littlewood were for a revival of John Marston's The Dutch Courtesan. Other early theatre work included designs for Lennox Berkeley's one-act opera A Dinner Engagement at the Aldeburgh Festival in 1954, Frederick Ashton's ballet Variations on a Theme by Purcell at the Royal Opera House in 1955, and Noël Coward's South Sea Bubble, at the Lyric Theatre in 1956. In 1955, Snow designed the British premiere of Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot, directed by Peter Hall at the Arts Theatre, where he also designed the costumes.
Peter Snow (executed at York, 15 June 1598) was an English Roman Catholic priest. He is a Catholic martyr, along with Ralph Grimston who died with him, beatified in 1987. Their liturgical celebration is on 15 June.
He left for England on the following 15 May. He was arrested about 1 May 1598, when on his way to York with Ralph Grimston of Nidd. Both were shortly after condemned, Snow of treason as being a priest and Grimston of felony, for having aided and assisted him, and, it is said, having attempted to prevent his apprehension.
Relics in Leeds Cathedral
In 1845, two skulls were discovered under the stone floor of the ancient chapel of Hazlewood Castle, near Tadcaster. At the time they were thought to be relics of two other English martyrs, John Lockwood and Edmund Catherick and the skulls were placed in a niche near the altar. In 1909, it was stated that they were the relics of Peter Snow and Ralph Grimston. This identification was accepted.
Dr Peter Snow (1935– 28 February 2006) was a general practitioner who served the New Zealand rural community of Tapanui for over 30 years. He was president of the Royal New Zealand College of GPs from 1998–99 and received their highest honour, Distinguished Fellowship, in 2001. He was a member of the Otago Hospital Board and its successor, the District Health Board.
Education
As a boy Peter Grahame Snow attended Auckland Grammar School, graduating with the class of 1948.
While training in medicine he intended to become a surgeon, but was unable to do so because he wore glasses to correct his eyesight, so he took up general practice in Tapanui.
Practice
In 1984 he was presented with a number of patients with a prolonged exertional'flu-like illness, but presenting no diagnosable condition. While some people thought they were no different from commonly found "tired all the time" (TATT) cases, Dr Snow was convinced that they were indeed sick and proceeded to investigate. Many were sheep farmers who previously had a perfect record of health. Observing a similarity between the symptoms of stock suffering from selenium deficiency and these patients, he was the first doctor in New Zealand to identify the disease which turned out to be an outbreak of myalgic encephalomyelitis, now classed as chronic fatigue syndrome. Due to, often disparaging, publicity surrounding these discoveries and a study into them by Peter Snow, Marion Poore, and Charlotte Paul, the illness came to be known in New Zealand as "Tapanui flu" after the town of the same name in West Otago.

Alle reden durcheinander Wichtig, laut und Querfeldein Ich bin mittendrin – hektisch Auf der Suche nach mehr Wein Ich schüttle Hände – weiß nicht mehr So ganz genau worum es geht Außerdem ist es spät Mir scheint Man hält mich gegen meinen Willen von Dir fern Anders kann ich mir das Einfach nicht erklären Oh habt mich gern! Hab ich mir das selbst eingebrockt Diese Zeit getrennt von Dir Ich vermiss Dich, brauch Dich, Warum bis Du jetzt Nicht hier? Ich will endlich wieder bei Dir sein Genug von all dem Trubel ich will bei Dir sein Mitten in der Meute, meistens doch allein Mit Dir kann ich endlich wieder bei mir sein. Nein ich bin nicht krank Auch nicht depressiv Leide nur an Sehnsucht Meine Laune steigt Nur bei allerbester Aussicht Auf Dich Ich will Dich halten Statt dessen werd ich sentinmental Und nichts ist los Nur die Hände im Schoß Dein Schmuse–Gruß per Stimme aus dem Handy Ist ein viel zu schwacher Trost dafür Es sei denn Du stehst Vor der Tür Ich will endlich wieder bei Dir sein Genug von all dem Trubel ich will bei Dir sein Mitten in der Meute, meistens doch allein Mit Dir (kann ich) endlich wieder bei mir sein. bitte schließ mich in Dein Herz Und laß mich nie nie mehr im Stich Ich weiß, ich bin nicht so ganz einfach Doch alles, was ich bin, liebt Dich So ertrag ich Schulterklopfen, die Intrigen und den Druck Und ertrinke nicht in falscher Euphorie, Gelaberflut Ich will endlich wieder bei Dir sein…
