Peter Jackson (22 September 1930, in Birmingham – 22 March 2004 (aged 73), in Solihull) was an England rugby union international who played on the wing for Coventry and Warwickshire for many years. He earned the nickname 'Nijinsky' after the Russian ballet dancer. He was devastating when he had the ball to hand and could sidestep or outpace a defender with equal facility. He then amazed the All Blacks on the 1959 Lions tour, scoring 16 tries in 14 games, including four test matches. He was described by one journalist as 'the zaniest runner of all time'.
