Paige Matthews Peterson (born March 19, 1955, in Marin County, California) is an American artist, author and photojournalist who has written extensively about the Middle East.

[5] Peterson facilitated the editing, publishing and production of Jon M. Huntsman's book Barefoot to Billionaire: Reflections on a Life's Work and a Promise to Cure Cancer.

In 2002, Paige Peterson was featured in Studios by the Sea, a photographic account, by Bob Colacello and Jonathan Becker, of artists working and living on Long Island's East End,[8] and, a year later, she was selected for lifetime membership in the Guild Hall Academy of the Arts.

[9] As a painter and illustrator specializing in acrylic landscapes, portraits and figural images, Peterson's work has been characterized as "lyrical" by the Philadelphia Inquirer[10] and "spare but evocative" by the San Francisco Chronicle.

[11] Peterson has been exhibited regularly in galleries from California to Maine (where, in 2004, her paintings appeared in a group show that also featured works by Christo, Chuck Close, and Alex Katz).
