TERRI EDDINGS
Vice President
Born in Southern California, Terri has traveled
extensively and has lived and/or gone to school in
Switzerland, England and Ireland. Her multi-national
life has been grounded in theater arts. Over the years,
she has been involved with every aspect of theatrical
production, both on stage and off.
Terri has been actively involved in sending packages to
the troops abroad for a long time. First, she sent them
to her son-in-law, Sergio Cuellar, when he was serving
in Iraq. Then, she jumped into the United Airlines
project with Joan Lawton. Now, as well as then, she is
deeply committed to making the troops abroad feel
appreciated. As a mother of two and grandmother
of two, giving back to these wonderful people who are
putting themselves at risk is a top priority.
Both Terri and her husband work at the Magic Castle, a
private club in Hollywood that is dedicated to the
preservation and continuation of the art of magic. Not
only is Terri the gift shop buyer and manager but she
also handles the membership dues for 5,000 or so active
members world-wide. Her interest in magic stemmed
from her mother’s performing close-up magic tricks
around the house. Since then and the Castle’s opening
in 1963, she dreamed of visiting the club.
Because all her family ties to the Castle were gone by
the time she turned 21, she was afraid that dream would
never be realized. Now going into her 10th year
as a full time employee, she has free run of the club
and has taken every advantage - attending magic
classes, decorating for Halloween, and currently
co-producing and acting in the Magic Castle Theatre
Company.
