Career



Early career


While in college, Teal performed in plays such as The House of Bernarda Alba and Antigone. In addition to performance, she participated more and more fully in the aspects of live theatre, such as stage management, ushering, and ticket sales. In addition, she performed with the Full Radius Dance Company, a physically integrated dance troupe.[2] Her first role in a feature film was in 2004, in Kenneth Branagh's film Warm Springs alongside Cynthia Nixon, Kathy Bates, Branagh himself, and Felicia Day.


Current Productions


In 2011 Teal created a pilot called "My Gimpy Life", envisioned as a comedy, written by Gabe Uhr, and directed by Sean Becker. It premiered at ITVfest on August 6, 2011.[citation needed]. The second season of "My Gimpy Life" began its Kickstarter campaign on May 15, 2013.


Personal life


Teal was born to Suzanne and Charles Sherer, and grew up near Knoxville, Tennessee. At the age of 14, en route to a Labor Day fireworks show, Teal was involved in an automobile accident. Her injuries to her back left her paraplegic. Teal regained her independence and mobility through undergoing therapy at the Shepherd Center in Atlanta, Georgia.[2][3]

Teal graduated from Lenior City High School, and went on to study at Oglethorpe University. While a student there, she found her passion for acting. In 2004, while still living in Atlanta, she was cast in Warm Springs.[2]

In 2012, she married Ali Alsaleh.[citation needed]
