Peter Schweizer (born 1964) is a conservative author and a research fellow at the Hoover Institution. His book Profiles in Liberal Hypocrisy received praise from conservative political pundits including Bill O'Reilly.
Schweizer's book Reagan's War was the basis of the documentary film In the Face of Evil. The book recounts Ronald Reagan's multi-decade struggle against Communism and credits him with winning the Cold War.
Among his inspirations as a historian, Schweizer credits Fernand Braudel, Gabriel Kolko, and Charles Beard.
