Terry Gilliam

Terry GILLIAM (1940, Minneapolis, USA) studied politics and worked as an illustrator. In 1967, he moved to London, where he was co-founder of Monty Python. With the five other members, he made animations and sketches for Monty Python's Flying Circus and several feature films. In 1976, he made his solo directing début with Jabberwocky.
