You may spend your life chasing success, only to find it was there all along.

Growing up on the south-side of Chicago in a family of seven children raised by a widowed Mother, Terry learned at an early age that success is defined in many different ways. After leaving college to pursue his professional acting career he discovered there are many ups and downs along the way, not just in acting but in life as well. Along the way he found his true love and married her. Together they not only raised two brilliantly creative children but started a company together that presents one-man historical portrayals. If that wasn’t enough, he and his wife wrote two books together, Mistakes Happen: An Historical Guide to Overcoming Adversity, and Nicholas comes to America, the Story of Santa Claus. Through it all he has continued to act on Stage, Radio and Television as not only an actor but a voice over artist as well. Terry regularly appears on the WGN Morning News Show and most recently can be seen in the feature film Lacey’s Christmas Do-Over as Hank McGuire owner of the Pine Hill B&B. Terry continues to use his years of Theatrical and Improvisational training from Northern Illinois University, Second City Training Center, and iO Theater to create unique presentations that are humorous, informative, and inspirational.
