Timeline

1950

His 1950s novel, "White Hunter, Black Heart" is, by his own admission, a thinly-disguised account of his adventures whilst working uncredited on the script of The African Queen (1951), and, in White Hunter Black Heart (1990), the 1990 film version, Jeff Fahey plays "Peter Verrill", an obvious self-portrait.

1952

In his memoir, "Dangerous Friends", Viertel states that although he was separated from his first wife since 1952, he did not actually get a legal divorce. When his first wife died in Jan. 1960, Peter then married Deborah Kerr 6 months later (on the day after Kerr's own divorce was legally finalized). Veirtel wrote that on his marriage certificate to Kerr, for his "status" he filled in the word "widower", because it was true. Peter Veirtel and his first wife, Jigee, had one daughter, Christine, born in 1952.

1959

Is thought to have made uncredited contributions to the screenplay of The Journey (1959).

1973

Viertel is also, some have alleged, the model for the character played by Robert Redford in The Way We Were (1973), whilst the Barbra Streisand character in the same film is said to be based on his first wife, Jigee.
