Terry Ruud

Terry Ruud grew up in rural MinneSnowta, but wandered off in search of Bohemia—touring with a band, making records, and getting national radio airplay. He then moved to Nashville, recorded a solo CD, and got a song recorded by two international recording artists. He returned to the Midwest, got BS/ English Education and MFA/Creative Writing degrees from MSUM, and currently teaches English at MSCTC-Fergus Falls. He enjoys his family, writing, and playing music with The Cat Sank Trio.
