BIO
TERRI DWYER has been a dynamic presence on both the big and small screen for nearly 30 years. Her deep-rooted experience in the entertainment industry made her transition into producing a natural evolution.
Her first project as a producer led to the writer receiving a prestigious Olivier Award nomination. She later produced the feature film BREAK, starring Hollywood legend Rutger Hauer in his final on-screen performance before his passing.
In September 2020, at the height of the global pandemic, Terri founded Buffalo Dragon, an independent production company. Its debut project, the psychological thriller THE STRANGER IN OUR BED, was adapted from a USA Today bestselling novel. In a remarkable 10-week turnaround from script completion to filming, the project came to life. The film premiered on Showtime in August 2022 to critical acclaim and was released in the UK by Signature Entertainment on September 5, 2022. It went on to win Best Thriller 2023 at the National Film Awards, triumphing over major studio releases.
Buffalo Dragon’s second feature, BOLAN'S SHOES, brought together an award-winning team, including BAFTA-winning actor Timothy Spall, BAFTA-nominated and BIFA-winning editor Chris Gill, and BAFTA-nominated, RTS-winning writer Ian Puleston-Davies. The film earned multiple accolades, including Best Feature Film 2024 at the National Film Awards, and was recently nominated for a BAFTA Cymru.
Beyond her work in production, Terri has continually honed her skills through competitive industry programs. In 2021, she was selected by Creative UK for the Market Trader program, an intensive six-month training course led by industry specialists. The following year, she was chosen for the highly selective Female Founders program, working under the guidance of Erica Wolfe-Murray, a renowned business and innovation expert specializing in scaling creative companies.
With a keen eye for compelling storytelling and a drive for innovation, Terri Dwyer continues to significantly impact the film industry.
