Born in Hertfordshire, Terry O'Neil has lived the majority of his life in the West Midlands, and after working in sales and marketing for the Rootes Group and British Leyland, worked for himself in Stourbridge for 25 years.
Terry was the archivist and committee member of the Ferrari Owners Club of Great Britain for a number of years, before venturing into writing articles for Cavallino, Vintage Racecar Journal, Healey Marque and the Ferrari Club magazine.
To date, Terry has had five books published, with two further titles in production. His enthusiasm for researching less well-known events culminated in his books The Bahamas Speed Weeks, SCCA/SAC races in America and Northeast American Sports Car Races 1950-1959.
