Checking in with PETER KRAUSE

family on HBO’s seriocomic “Six Feet Under” (2001-05). The latter show earned him many award nominations, including for three Primetime Emmys and two Golden Globes. Krause’s next series stop was ABC’s “Dirty Sexy Money” (2007-09), on which his character succeeded his late father as the attorney for a vastly wealthy New York family headed by a couple played by Donald Sutherland and Jill Clayburgh.

After a two-season run as a co-anchor of a fictional sports-news show on ABC’s “Sports Night” (1998-2000), created and produced by Aaron Sorkin (“The West Wing”), Krause spent five seasons as a member of a funeral-home-operating
