He shot to fame for his role as J. Peterman on the NBC serial Seinfeld. It has been argued by many, that Petermen might have a higher net worth than what he gets now.

Peterman Company and became a member of the Board of Directors.
John was also one of the participants of a dance reality show “Dancing with the Stars” in 2004. He initially lost the final show to Kelly Monaco. Fans alleged that Monaco’s victory was fabricated and they again demanded a special grudge match episode. O’ Hurley emerged as the winner in the show. He has also hosted several television shows and game shows like the Family Feud and To Tell the Truth. Ever since 2002, Hurley has been hosting the Purina Annual Dog Show on the occasion of Thanksgiving every year.
