DUNN

Hey Friends!

So glad you’re here— I’m Hunter.

I began my acting journey as a part of The Chicago Storefront Theater scene try my best to bring its creativity and good vibes to everything that I do.

Since attending NYU-Tisch (Experimental Theater Wing, Classical Studio), I’ve found success in TV and independent film, most recently appearing on Law And Order: SVU and the upcoming indie films Goo, Turtle Bay, And Scrubbed.

I’m also a Gynecological Teaching Associate, which means that I teach the Breast and Pelvic exam on my own anatomy.

Basically: collaboration, movement, joy.

Much Muchness,

Hunter Hopkins Dunn
