Trey McIntyre#Trey McIntyre Project

McIntyre was born in Wichita, Kansas, and trained at North Carolina School of the Arts and Houston Ballet Academy. In 1989, he was appointed Choreographic Apprentice to Houston Ballet, a position created especially for him,{{cite web|last=Atkins|first=Amy|title=Raising the Barre|url=http://www.boiseweekly.com/boise/raising-the-barre/Content?oid=937900|publisher=Boise Weekly|date=September 3, 2008|accessdate=17 December 2013}} and in 1995 he became the company’s Choreographic Associate. He has worked for 27 years as a freelance choreographer, producing over 100 pieces during the span of his career so far.

In 2005, McIntyre founded his dance company, Trey McIntyre Project (TMP), which first appeared at the Vail International Dance Festival. The company was initially a summer touring company, but its national and international success led McIntyre to establish the company year-round as of 2008, based in Boise, Idaho. TMP has been featured in The New York Times, Dance Magazine, and on PBS NewsHour, and has earned coast-to-coast acclaim from the likes of the Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune, The Boston Globe,{{cite web|url=http://www.treymcintyre.com/press/|title=Press|publisher=Trey McIntyre Project}} People Magazine,{{cite web |title=Trey McIntyre in People Magazine |url=http://www.whitebird.org/blog/2009/02/trey-mcintyre-people-magazine |website=www.whitebird.org |access-date=27 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110629054250/http://whitebird.org/blog/2009/02/trey-mcintyre-people-magazine |archive-date=2011-06-29 |language=en |date=Feb 12, 2009}} and elsewhere. In 2013, Trey McIntyre Project expanded its artistic vision and announced a crowdsourced documentary film entitled Ma Maison. The project was announced on Kickstarter on August 7, 2013, and in November 2013, McIntyre went to New Orleans to begin filming.{{cite web|url=http://instagram.com/tmp_films|title=TMP Films - Trey McIntyre Project makes movies|publisher=Instagram|date=December 2013}}

On January 16, 2014, it was announced that McIntyre would move the Trey McIntyre Project towards new artistic ventures, reducing his efforts in dance. The company revealed a press release[http://treymcintyre.com/static/pressrelease.html "Trey McIntyre Project Announces New Direction for Year 10"], TMP. explaining that McIntyre, after contributing heavily to the dance world, is interested in exploring other art forms, specifically film and the visual arts. He will continue to create pieces on a freelance basis but the dance aspect of Trey McIntyre Project is downsizing as he makes room for other artistic projects.{{cite news|last=Oland|first=Dana|title=Trey McIntyre Project to Disband as Full-Time Dance Company|url=http://www.idahostatesman.com/2014/01/06/2959862/trey-mcintyre-project-to-disband.html|newspaper=Idaho Statesman}}
