Peter Janson
Percy Pierre Gustaf "Peter" Janson (born 10 April 1940 in New Zealand) is an Australian socialite and former motor racing driver.
Janson was born in New Zealand, emigrating to England at a young age. In 1967, he moved to Australia and settled in Melbourne.
Janson, who listed his occupation as "Gentleman", established a playboy penthouse in the Federal Hotel before moving to the Hotel Windsor. In the 1980s he moved to Rutherglen House. Janson is renowned for the parties he throws, and was a pioneer in transforming the Melbourne Cup into a major event on the Australian social calendar.
Often referred to as "The Captain" or "Captain Peter Janson", this allegedly comes from that he was either a Captain in the Indian Army while being the Trade Commissioner for Australia in India, or he was allegedly a Captain in the Bhutan Air Force.
