"Tim is uniquely qualified to help us continue to build The J. Peterman Company into an innovative brand that's able to leverage the power and utility that the Internet makes possible for our customers," said John Peterman. "We couldn't be more fortunate to have him on board."

Peterman will oversee one of the country's most recognized, specialty retail brands. The J. Peterman Company offers a growing range of interesting and unique products, including men's and women's apparel, home furnishings, one-of-a-kind, kitchen-ware, antiques and more.
