It seems like only yesterday that #PeterKrause broke through as the prodigal son Nate Fisher on “Six Feet Under.” The prevailing theme of that show (which premiered 25 years ago now) is that time goes fast. It sure does. From there, Krause starred in “Dirty Sexy Money,” “Parenthood,” and “9-1-1”—each step of the way, his characters seemed to grow wiser, stronger, and more honorable. Now, his journey to dignified moral authority has reached a new level with #LineOfFire. At the link in our bio, Kraus reflects on his first days in the business, the vital things he learned from Carol Burnett, and what it’s like to mentor a new generation of actors.
