Theresa Scott was born in Waterford in 1951.
She was from Golden, County Tipperary.
She was educated at University College Dublin graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in History, Economics and Maths, and St Patrick's College, Maynooth with a Higher Diploma in Education, qualifying as a post-primary school teacher.
She married Liam Ahearn in 1981, and they had four sons.
They lived on the family farm near Clonmel, County Tipperary; her husband was a farmer.
Until her election to the Dáil, she taught mathematics at the Central Technical Institute, Clonmel.
Her first elected office was as a member of South Tipperary County Council from 1983 until 1999.
Noted as a highly effective orator, she was elected to the 26th Dáil as a Fine Gael TD for Tipperary South at the 1989 general election, becoming the only female Fine Gael deputy representing a rural constituency in the Dáil.
She served as Fine Gael spokesperson on higher-education in 1991, at one time calling for the Dublin Institute of Technology to be granted the power to award their own degrees, stating "The colleges, in particular the DIT, at this stage rightly claim to have long experience of teaching to degree level... I suggest that now is the time to give the colleges this power to award their own degrees".
She was re-elected at the 1992 and the 1997 general elections.
She was appointed as a Fine Gael spokesperson on Labour in 1992, and from 1992 to 1993 on Energy.

At the time of her death she was both a member of Fine Gael's National Executive Committee, and the first-ever female trustee of the party.
In the by-election after death, her Dáil seat in Tipperary South was retained for Fine Gael by Tom Hayes of Kilfeakle.
