.049 Danny Dunitz
When I called Danny for this, I immediately felt a surge of happiness when his voice came through on the other end. No one has a contagious laugh like Danny’s, one that can make you join in instantly. On top of this, his smile is equally as infectious, making him an absolute delight to be around. Danny and I met in college in DC and I remember being incredibly impressed by his voice and comfort on stage. He was in an amazing a cappella group that ended up performing at an event I hosted.
Off stage, Danny hit me with his charming presence and deeply compassionate listening ear. He’s so very smart and is naturally capable of talking about anything. We’ve had goofy convos, serious ones, seen shows together, and spent a good amount of our time in NYC together (before he moved to LA…boo). He’s massively talented, both with his singing and acting, and a true pleasure to be around and to be friends with. If you bring him up to anyone that knows him, they’ll gush with compliments and kindness because Danny truly is beloved, and rightfully so. He’s sweet and gentle, absolutely hilarious and extremely thoughtful.
Danny, thank you for being such a patient and generous friend, to me and so many others. Thank you for your fabulous energy and for letting me make you laugh so much. Thank you for always having the best thing to say, or ear to listen with, and thank you for your unwavering support of me and all of your friends. I’m so grateful for our time in DC and for how we got to know each other more and more in NYC. The world is a better place because you’re in it, and the same can be said about my life. Thank you for being you.
