Jari Tervo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jari Tervo (b. February 2, 1959) is a well known Finnish author with roots in Rovaniemi. As another of the team captains he is also a familiar face from Finnish TV's Have I Got News For You, i.e. Uutisvuoto. He writes traditional plot-driven prose, sometimes more humoristic (Poliisin poika), sometimes more like a detective story (Myyrä). Often he includes autobiographical elements. For example, Kallellaan is a diary, and Minun sukuni tarina has a protagonist which is, in all but de jure, the author himself.
