Peter Meyer’s passing closes a chapter on a quieter kind of Hollywood power—the kind that never needed a spotlight to shape careers and lives. He was the man behind the curtain, fighting for fair deals, shielding his clients when the glare grew too harsh, and reminding them that fame meant nothing without a soul to carry it.
