P.K. Glazer
Peter Kendal Glazer (P.K.)
11/12/1982-07/10/2026
It is with a heavy heart the Lake Oswego Film Festival announces P.K. Glazer, our Master of Ceremonies and board member, passed away unexpectedly on July 10, 2026. We are devastated by the loss of our best friend who was not only a super smart gentleman, but also a vivacious, and the kindest man you could ever hope to meet. He had a whip smart sense of humor and lit up any room he entered. We will take a moment at the awards show to honor this wonderful human being. We love you P.K.
For reference, here is a brief bio.
