Award-winning writer, reporter, and anchor Terri Merryman has dodged rifle fire, lived in an Israeli settlement, and moved into a Russian village to conduct important interviews via satellite. She has interviewed subjects as volatile as Shimon Peres and Newt Gingrich and as genteel as Lena Horne, Dolly Parton, and Nancy Reagan. Still, her conviction that everyone has at least one unique and interesting story to share has never wavered. Terri has anchored and reported news in Nashville, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Miami. Today she writes biographies from the peace and tranquility of her horse farm overlooking the Cumberland River in Lebanon, Tennessee.

Lebanon, Tennessee – Terry Ashe was working in a Lebanon clock factory and planning a career in law enforcement after high school graduation, but when he received his draft card, his dreams of becoming a sheriff were put on hold. After training as a paratrooper with the 101st Airborne Division, Ashe was promptly deployed to Vietnam, where numerous near misses, close calls, and chance encounters tested and reaffirmed his faith, but left a permanent mark that time will never erase.
