Peter Fernandez (born 29 January 1927) is an American actor, voice actor, director, and film crew person from the United States with extensive experience in screenwriting, production, and voice and dialogue direction.

He was the voice director for Robert Mandell's Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers series.
Peter had a cameo in the 2008 film Speed Racer. He is also currently the voice of Spritle in the 2008 animated spinoff, Speed Racer: The Next Generation, and the original Speed Racer, as seen in the episode, "The Note".
