Peter Pezzati (September 18, 1902 – February 19, 1993) was an American portrait artist who was located in the Boston area.

His artwork included landscapes, pen and ink drawings, watercolors, pastel and oil portraits.

He then won a scholarship to the Child-Walker School of Arts and Crafts in Boston; there he studied under American painter Charles Hopkinson, who took him on as an assistant.

In the mid-1920s he taught art at the Child-Walker School for two years, then went on a six-month traveling and painting tour of Europe, especially France and Italy, arriving back in Boston just in time to attend his sister Josephine's wedding on February 19, 1928, where he was the best man of Bruno Ferroli.
