Adderley is President of Kelly Services, Inc. and is from Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. He has had a passion for the automobiles of Auburn for many years. He believed in the museum from its very beginning in the early 1970s, when pillars of the community were aspiring to save the Auburn Automobile Company administration building from the wrecking ball. Today the building is part of the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Facility, a National Historic Landmark. He co-signed the mortgage on the museum building in 1973. From that day forward, he has been a supporter and an avid ambassador for the museum, serving on its Board at various times, always participating in activities with his cars, co-chairing The Road Ahead Capital Campaign and sponsoring the Terence E. Adderley Gallery of Racers and Record-Setters.
