Peter Edward Cook was an English satirist, writer and comedian. An extremely influential figure in modern British comedy, he is regarded as the leading light of the British satire boom of the 1960s.

Cook is closely associated with anti-establishment comedy that emerged in Britain and the USA in the late 1950s.
