Mark Dunn
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mark Dunn (* 1956 Memphis, Tennessee) is an American author and playwright.
Among the twenty-five plays Dunn has written (as of 2001), Belles and Five Tellers Dancing in the Rain have been produced over one hundred fifty times. Dunn is presently playwright-in-residence with the New Jersey Repertory Company and the Community Theatre League in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. He has also written three novels, Ella Minnow Pea (2001), Welcome to Higby (2002), and Ibid: A Life (2004).
Dunn seems to be particularly interested in constrained writing, with Ella Minnow Pea being a "progressively lipogrammatic" epistolary novel, and Ibid: A Life, comprised entirely from the endnotes of a fictional "lost" biography.
Dunn lives with his wife Mary in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
