  • Terry Davis (born 1946) is an American novelist. He was born in, and lived near Spokane, Washington for many years, and is a professor emeritus of English at Minnesota State University, Mankato (MSU Mankato), where he taught Creative writing – fiction and screenwriting – as well as adolescent literature.

He has also written Presenting Chris Crutcher, a biography of the respected young-adult author. John Irving called Vision Quest "the truest novel about growing up since Catcher in the Rye," and said, "it's a better novel about wrestling, and wrestlers, than The World According to Garp." Vision Quest was made into a 1985 movie of the same title, starring Matthew Modine and Linda Fiorentino. (en)
