Terryl Paiste has shamelessly borrowed characters and plot ideas from her Air Force enlistment, and even from her late husband’s stamp collecting expertise. Her comedies for senior actors and audiences have been seen off-off Broadway, at retirement communities around the country, and as far away as Russia. While managing an office of talented writer-editors at the FDIC in Washington, D.C., she earned an M.A. in English from the U. of Maryland, won dozens of Toastmasters International humorous speaking awards, and helped establish “Playwrights
Anonymous” (for those caught in the vicious addiction of writing plays).
