Peter Wright (born on August 9, 1916 in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, United Kingdom - died April 27, 1995 in Tasmania, Australia) was a former MI5 counterintelligence officer noted for writing the controversial book Spycatcher (ISBN 0670820555), which was part memoir, part exposé of what Wright claimed to be serious institutional failings in MI5.
Peter Wright was the son of Maurice Wright, who was the Marconi Company's director of research, and one of the founders of signals intelligence during World War I.

Wright earned his biggest payday ever -- $4 million -- but even before the fight was talking about the money he could make in a rematch.

Wright heeded his trainer's advice and began piling up the rounds, relentlessly going after the shorter Mosley, who tried to counter him by moving about the ring.
