Could you maybe be more specific about the "Inspector Clouseau" clue? I wouldn't have got it either way, but I wasted a lot of time trying to come up with something. Maybe specify that you want the actor, and specifically the actor from the 1963 film. I would have skipped it if I knew it was specific to the 63 version.

I agree. I was utterly confused by the question, 'cause I didn't know what it was asking for. I was trying to think of any Peter who was in the story in some way....

Probably not yet "famous", but Peter Yarrow was singing folk as early as the '50's.

Peter Paul and Mary first became famous around 1962 (around the same time as Bob Dylan), so Yarrow wouldn't work.

Clearly some people aren't aware that without Sellers' comic genius, Clouseau would've remained an obscure comedy film of the sixties. He made that character.
