Dear Mr. Dekay,

My name is Matt Winick and I wanted to say that I enjoy watching you act as FBI Agent Peter Burke on White Collar. White Collar is one of my favorite tv shows on USA Network because I liked on the plot of the story about a white collar criminal working the White Collar FBI division on stopping crime like fraud, robbery, scams, and counterfeit.  Another reason I liked White Collar was that it had a great balance between crime, comedy, and how the whit collar criminal uses his technique to solve crimes.  In October 2009 I saw the pilot episode and I really liked the episode because I liked on how the main show started where Neal, a white collar criminal escapes to prison that results in him getting caught by Agent Burke.  In the pilot I liked on how Agent Burke makes a deal with Neal to be an informant to help the FBI with cases to reduce his prison time.  Throughout the show I really enjoyed all the episodes because I really liked on how Neal, a white collar criminal has a good working relationship including a friendship with Agent Burke even though they have different methods on solving cases, where their background comes from, and when they have a conflict. I thought you, Mr. Matt Bomer, Mr. Willie Garson, Tiffani Thiessen, Mr. Sharif Atkins, and Ms. Marsha Thomason did a great job making White Collar fun to watch and making the characters have interesting role in helping on another.  When White Collar ended after 6 seasons I was very sad because I really like the episodes of not being dark, having humor mixed with solving crimes, and making the show nice by having an FBI agent have a friendship with a criminal.  

Mr. Dekay, your work on White Collar got me to be very interested in studying about history of white collar crimes by watching documentaries and reading books. Also your work including Mr. Matt Bomer helped me get interested in becoming a fan of White Collar and watching every episodes. I think you and Mr. Matt Bomer are a great team on making the show clever, fun, humor, and having a great mix between friendships and solving crimes through your roles as Peter and Neal.  I have Autism with a learning disability.  Having a disability is hard for me because sometimes I get teased by other people due to having it, I struggle on comprehending on learning different subjects, and sometimes I struggle communicating my thoughts.  Your role as Agent Peter Burke on White Collar where you worked hard to fix friendship with Neal when there is a conflict really inspires me to work hard on Autism and understand the need for friendships with how they are important.

Mr. Dekay, I strongly believe that you really made a great difference in making White Collar a great show mixed with crime, comedy, and friendship.  You and Mr. Matt Bomer really made a great team on making every episode a great one to watch and make your characters blend well with different traits. I’m proud to call you one of my favorite tv actors because you do such a great job making Agent Burke have a sense of humor, caring for his friends including people who he works with, and making sure that friendships is important. Here is two pictures of me in suit with a tie trying to be like a wanna-be white collar character and a picture of me as a gift to you to keep for inspiring me . Also here is a card wishing you a Happy Birthday for June 12^th. Thanks for taking the time to read my letter, making your character including White Collar fun to watch, and inspiring me to be a fan of the show with your acting including working hard  on Autism.  I wish you well for the future in acting and I hope that someday there can be a White Collar movie starring you and Mr. Matt Bomer.    

Sincerely,

Matt Winick
