Terry Kaye
Terry Kaye is a professional actress, singer and writer who has performed across the United States, Canada and Europe in theatre, television and film. She starred as Claire in the pilot episode of Forbidden Doors - the Series, based on the popular series of novels by Bill Myers. The pilot was screened at the Beverly Hills Film and New Media Festival. A Los Angeles resident, Terry is a native New Yorker and maintains that East Coast edge. Real life experience as a Police Specialist has made her equally comfortable portraying a sweet ingénue or a seasoned police detective - and she is fluent in police-radio-squawk. At five feet tall, she is small in stature, but there is nothing small about her presence on stage or screen. This petite powerhouse really packs a punch. As a singer, Terry appeared on the American Music Awards singing backup for Jessica Simpson. A self-described "compulsive harmonizer," Terry has performed at New York City's Don't Tell Mama and LA's Gardenia, and recently brought down the house at Pasadena's third annual Jazzy Jam Festival with the cover band Rapid Response. Terry grew up in a home where the written word was revered, and she still loves the power of language. She also takes after both of her parents as an "incorrigible punster." Her writing has been published in the short story collection The Ultimate Halloween, in several national and trade publications, and on national blogs including the Huffington Post. Terry was one of the first American exchange students to attend the Moscow Art Theatre College. She also studied at the prestigious National Theatre Institute at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre Center.

Terry Kinney
Terry Kinney, the stage, film and television actor, was born in Lincoln, Illinois and attended Illinois State University. While at university, his friend, the aspiring actor Jeff Perry, took Kinney to Chicago to see a production of "Grease" in which his best friend, Gary Sinise, was appearing. The like-minded trio of Sinise, Perry and Kinney opened their own Chicago theatrical troupe, the Steppenwolf Theatre, in 1973 in the basement of a church in Highland Park. The company's metamorphosis into one of the country's great regional theatrical companies began in 1976, after Kinney and Perry joined it full-time after graduating from college. The theater has, since 1976, put on a full season of ensemble works. The founders of Steppenwolf supported the theater and themselves with odd jobs until he company began financially self-supporting in the early 1980s. Re-located in the old St. Nicholas Theater, Steppenwolf's productions began to attract a steady audience. Steppenwolf flourished artistically and financially in the '80s, and moved once again to its permanent home at 1650 N. Halsted Street in Chicago. At the height of the company's fame, Kinney and Sinise were Steppenwolf's artistic co-directors, winning numerous awards, and even transferring some productions, such as their monumental adaptation of John Steinbeck's "The Grapes of Wrath", to Broadway. In addition to Kinney and Sinise, the company included such first rate actors as John Malkovich, Joan Allen and John Mahoney. As an actor, Kinney was nominated for a Tony Award for his appearance as the "Reverend Casy" in "Grapes." Kinney made his movie debut in 1985, with a bit part in Seven Minutes in Heaven (1986), and has been much in demand as a supporting actor ever since. On television, he had a recurring role on Thirtysomething (1987) and appeared as a regular on the HBO prison drama Oz (1997).

He graduated with a degree in Industrial Engineering and worked for three years in this profession in his hometown of Omaha. Kiser also acted in some 50 plays around this same time. Terry then moved to New York and studied his craft at the Actors Studio, where he was mentored by legendary Method acting teacher Lee Strasberg. Following several gigs in television commercials, he made his film debut as a preacher in the film Rachel, Rachel (1968). Although often cast as sleazy and unlikable scoundrels, Terry has shown on occasion that he can portray more sympathetic parts with equal skill and conviction. Kiser gave an especially strong and engaging performance in a rare substantial starring role in the little seen drama Lapin 360 (1972). Best known as the deceased, but still active Bernie Lomax in the hilarious "Weekend at Bernie's" films, Terry's other memorable roles include Chuck Norris' ill-fated cop partner Dave Pierce in the exciting An Eye for an Eye (1981), shady businessman Freddy Barrett in the entertaining science fiction disaster film Starflight: The Plane That Couldn't Land (1983), petty worthless hoodlum Jesse Hardwick in the superior horror anthology opus The Offspring (1987), sneaky psychiatrist Dr. Crews in Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood (1988), and the evil Count Gunther Spretzle in Mannequin: On the Move (1991). Kiser had a recurring part on the daytime soap opera The Doctors (1963).
