Jim Peterik was born on November 11, 1950
Jim Peterik was born on November 11, 1950, in Berwyn, Illinois. He became the singer and guitarist behind The Ides of March’s “Vehicle,” then helped establish Survivor as a keyboardist and songwriter. His collaboration with Frankie Sullivan on “Eye of the Tiger,” written for the 1982 film Rocky III, connected those songwriting skills to a very specific challenge: giving a boxer’s comeback its musical pulse.
