Terrence T. C. Carson
Terrence T. C. Carson was born on November 19, 1969 in Chicago, Illinois, US, where he was also raised. When he was in his teens the family moved from LeClaire Courts (housing project) in southwest Chicago to the suburbs. It was a pretty big change for him to go from city to suburb.
Carson had been singing in theatre since grade school and his studies didn't stop there. He attended the University of Illinois to study architecture and fine arts (and a little voice), and was a member of the Alpha Lambda chapter of Iota Phi Theta (1981). He primarily stuck to singing in choruses, jazz and soul bands and of course musical theatre. He left school to put acting first though and the first thing he did was join the Free Street Theatre where he eventually won two Joseph Jefferson Awards for his acting.
Carson currently lives in Wrigleyville, Illinois
