Believing that nothing is impossible, Terry keeps his family intact under one roof, despite losing his executive job at The Coca-Cola Company.

At 57, Terry runs from Minneapolis to Atlanta - the distance of 75 marathons in 75 consecutive days, arriving the week of the Summer Olympic Games. Atlanta’s Mayor and international press from as far away as Japan greet him. He declines an Opening Ceremonies participation offer, returns home, and ends up in a hospital for six months to recover from fractured ankles and a mental letdown. One relentless Hollywood suitor tells him that Academy-Award-winner Billy Bob Thornton told him,: “[Terry’s story] must be put on film, and I want to be the voice!” MY RUN wins top awards at 11 of 15 film festivals. Terry’s book, A Father’s Odyssey, inspires parents and children in 26 countries. Film and book win the prestigious Dove Award. The biography, LIVING BEYOND IMPOSSIBLE, is the whole story of this amazing Pied Piper who dreams of one day seeing a Cabinet-level Secretary of Children in governments!

CHEF TELL was America's pioneer, syndicated-TV rock-star chef, a contemporary of Julia Child. His fan base was 8X larger than hers. Friedemann Paul Erhardt faces an audition for a cooking slot on a syndicated-television show scriptless. Using his wit and personality, he wins, birthing a new breed: the TV-showman chef. Soon, 40,000,000 avid fans tune in to Evening Magazine or PM Magazine and watch “Chef Tell” perform 90-second cooking segments three times a week. He sweeps across the nation’s small screens like a prairie fire. No one has ever seen anyone like him. PM Magazine’s “rock-star chef” draws up to 50-percent market share in 95 percent of their syndicated outlets. Tell’s ruggedly masculine appeal crosses gender and generational lines. “If a housewife, or man, sees me do something in 90 seconds they figure they can make it in five minutes,” says Tell. Off-camera, Erhardt already suffering the scars of his post-WWII childhood and his mother’s ignominious suicide, endures another suicide, two lost marriages, sporadic drug use, and clandestine sexual encounters before finding personal happiness with a woman he trusts implicitly and loves boundlessly. He makes numerous appearances on LIVE! with Regis & Kathy Lee, begins production of his own cooking show, and opens two more restaurants in Pennsylvania. In the Kitchen with Chef Tell airs on PBS locally, pulls high ratings, and gets picked up on syndication. What happens next is worth your reading!!!
