Terzieff was the son of French ceramist[2] Marina and her husband Jean Terzieff, a Romanian-born sculptor of Russian and Romanian descent who came to France from Bucharest during the First World War. The original surname of his family was Chemerzin (Template:Langx). As an adolescent, he was fascinated with philosophy and poetry. He assisted with a representation of the La Sonate des spectres by Strindberg, directed by Roger Blin; while involved in the theater he decided he wanted to become an actor.
Terzieff made his debut in 1953 at the Parisian Template:Ill in Tous contre tous by Adamov. After several more roles, Marcel Carné offered him a lead role in Les Tricheurs (1958), a tale about existentialist youth. He then appeared in the late works of French scenario writers such as Claude Autant-Lara, with whom he appeared in three films including Tu ne tueras point in 1961. Other collaborators included Henri-Georges Clouzot (La prisonnière), in which he plays an artist manipulator. In 1975 Terzieff played the leading role as the priest in Jeu.
