Born into an Italian/Sicilian speaking family, Teresa went to Catholic schools growing up in Brooklyn, New York. She met her future husband Michael at one of these Catholic schools. She attended Brooklyn College and was voted Campus Queen one year because of her outstanding good looks. She followed her husband to the Midwest for graduate school and finally settled in Roanoke, Virginia, the "Star City," where she had three children, Crista Mary Birmingham, John Birmingham, and "Tayza" Terese Michelle Birmingham. Her first foray into motion pictures was through executive producing her son John's first feature film Crazy Animal.
