Peter Starr

Peter Starr is a science teacher-turned animator who currently produces the biochemistry-focused Youtube channel “This Glorious Clockwork.” He is eternally haunted by a 63% score he received on his Organic Chemistry 101 final exam--and has dedicated his career and free time to making advanced life-sciences concepts more accessible to students and the general public. He has taught biology and chemistry everywhere from Busan South Korea, to Moscow to Perth, Western Australia. He currently animates clockwork and other commissions out of a small closet by the beach in Los Angeles. If you’re ever looking for a way to communicate research or a hard-to-explain concept to the general public, please note that Peter can be bribed into doing basically anything if you provide him parafilm--the single coolest and most-fun substance humankind has ever produced.
