Jimmy Dunn is an American stand-up comedian and actor. According to The Portsmouth Herald, he is known for his portrayal of the "big, loud, dumb guy".[1] In 2014, he was cast in the CBS sitcom The McCarthys.[2] He grew up in Beverly, Massachusetts, and attributed his role in the show in part to his Boston roots, where the show is set. Other factors include his experience in playing "chubby and dim" characters, which he described as his main strength.[3] He currently resides in Hampton, New Hampshire.[1]
