Terence H. Winkless is an American producer, director, actor and writer of motion pictures and television,[1] and a cast member of The Banana Splits Adventure Hour, playing Bingo the Gorilla, also a cast member in Trade Routes, and Goreyan Nu Daffa Karo, among others.
Born in Springfield, Massachusetts, Winkless's family moved to Chicago's North Shore and Terence went to the well-known New Trier High School in Winnetka, Illinois.
His family then moved to Los Angeles to work on The Banana Splits Adventure Hour, on which he and his brothers played three of the four title characters, and their father wrote the theme song.
