Dave "Peterman" Peterson

Vice President and Director of Sales


Dave Peterson, better known as “Peterman,” has worked for the Tornadoes organization since 2005 as the On-Field Emcee. You may have seen him hanging with Twister, providing play-by-play for a pie-eating contest, or starting a rally by dancing with his tacky jackets. In addition to his on-field responsibilities during the season, Peterman serves as the Director of Sales for the Tornadoes year-round. Born in Boston, MA, Dave grew up in Medway and received a B.S. in Television, Radio, and Film from Syracuse University’s Newhouse School of Public Communications. He comes to the Tornadoes after working 5 years at Citadel Broadcasting in Worcester as a Promotions Director and then a Marketing Consultant. He was married in September, 2007 and makes his home in Worcester. When he’s not at the ballpark, you can find Peterman on the golf course, shopping for new suit coats, or dining out with Twister.
