Palisades Podcast: Jimmy Dunne | Pacific Palisades
The Palisades Podcast—hosted by longtime residents Steve Cron and Maryam Zar—sat down with Jimmy Dunne in September for an hour-long conversation, spanning from his life and Pacific Palisades to his childhood in Arkansas, his formative years, and his chance encounter with Garry Marshall and the years in television.
In the Palisades, Dunne started and runs the bocce league at Veterans Gardens at Palisades Recreation Center, but he’s also had a career in music and television. He got his start in Hollywood working for Marshall on shows such as “Happy Days” and other sitcoms, and was also successful in the music field.
As he tells it, he found the Palisades one 4th of July when he was winding through Sunset Boulevard, making his way to the beach for a party and stumbled upon the parade. It was then he knew he wanted to live right here.
