Staff Recommendations:
"I worked directly for Terry Irving at CNN's Washington D.C. bureau in 2006. At that time, he was a senior producer in the newsroom and later managing producer of a U.S. mid-term elections special. During that project, Terry oversaw multiple news teams -- consisting of reporters, producers, editors, and photographers -- that produced six one-hour documentaries in less than one month. It takes a creative, well-experienced manager with strong interpersonal skills to pull that off in such a short period of time. From my experience working with him, Terry Irving reflects all of those qualities."
— David J. Ariosto, International Producer - Havana, Cuba, CNN, reported to Terry at CNN
"Terry's editorial vision and passion for journalism made working with him a joy. I always knew that any script or piece that he was collaborating with me on would improve due to his input. He is a realist about execution and expectations but always delighted in the results of his team going above and beyond."
— Amanda Turnbull, Producer, CNN - NewsNight with Aaron Brown, worked indirectly for Terry at CNN
