Peter Hammarbäck (b. 1983) is a journalist and writer. He has, amongst other things, worked as editor-in-chief for Vi Läser and RES, written articles and author profiles for Tidningen Vi, and freelanced in east Africa. He has a background in communication and PR, working with multiple Swedish publishing houses.

Some of his most prominent moments in life have been connected to animals – mostly trying to avoid them: from backpacking in African national parks to bull runs in Pamplona. He resides in Stockholm with his family. Zoo Boy, published by Bazar in 2023, is his literary debut.
