When I was working for Alliance Atlantis, they brought Terry O’Reilly in for a creative writing workshop for us. I think I learned more in a day than any other course I had ever taken. A very engaging guy!

Can't wait to read this article. I've been a fan of Terry O'Reilly for decades.

Years ago I spent a Saturday afternoon at Terry's Pirate Toronto studio. I was there for a voice actor class and just to stand in the booth in front of the mic reading the copy, hearing the playback and getting coached on my delivery by Tracey Hoyt was a memorable experience. The sound quality created at Pirate was exceptional.

I know Terry's affiliated with the CBC right now but I'd love to hear John Moore interview him one day.

Not to be a spoiler , O'Reilly has a GTHA connection at the start of his career. His first radio gig was at FM108 in Burlington.
