His father was a salesman and had worked from 9 to 5 pm. Likewise, his mother worked in a school as a music teacher.
Peter Dinklage has an elder brother named Jonathan. Before becoming a celebrity, he and his brother used to perform for people in their neighborhoods.
Entering Hollywood hadn't been easy for him. He struggled a lot. He had participated in several theatrical shows and worked as an employee in a company for five years.
The actor has given his older brother credit, saying
"He is the real performer who supported him and kept forcing him to follow the dream I dreamt."
He also added
"I didn't live a luxurious life. I was a simple guy, and before counting me as a celebrity, I wanted to be counted as a simple son of a simple father."
