Stine agreed to sit for an interview after Dunn "cold-tweeted" him on Twitter. īecause 100 Interviews was an independent project, Dunn sometimes solicited interviews with candidates in non-traditional and unexpected ways. However, Dunn also wanted to offer readers the opportunity to "vicariously meet people" whose lives were different from their own. Their initial inspiration for the project stemmed from their own personal desire to meet different people and hear their stories. Interview subjects included a transgender person, a rocket scientist, an Abraham Lincoln expert, and Stephen Colbert. In October 2010, Dunn created 100 Interviews, a Tumblr blog in which they intended to publish transcripts of 100 interviews, given over the course of a single year, with a variety of different people. After their junior year, Dunn worked as an intern at The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. They worked the 6:30 pm – 2:30 am shift, using a police scanner to monitor potential news items, and then driving to the scene of the crime to write about it. ĭuring their second year at Emerson, Dunn began a two-year stint as a crime reporter for The Boston Globe. At the time they considered themself a better writer than actor, and working in CCC allowed them to do both, since members were expected to write and perform their own sketches.
Their audition was successful and they became a member of the troupe. Dunn had wanted to audition for CCC, but was too scared to do so until they were urged to take the audition slot of a former boyfriend who had become sick the day before and could not perform. ĭunn began performing during their first year at Emerson with the sketch comedy troupe Chocolate Cake City (CCC).
They majored in Multimedia Journalism, graduating in 2009. Education ĭunn attended Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts. They were formerly a writer, director, and performer for BuzzFeed Video before leaving to focus on Just Between Us. Dunn has also published two finance-related books, as well as a graphic novel.
