Dan Gunderman,

director, copywriting

What’s that word again?

Why I work at Big Duck:

I get to use my writing skills for the better good. And feed my self-righteousness.

What I think is just ducky:

Scotland, a well-thrown knuckleball, laughing with the missus, Sunnyside (Queens, baby!), coffee

What really ruffles my feathers:

Hate-mongering politics, service cuts by the MTA coupled with fare increases, dried fruit

Life before Big Duck:

I grew up mostly in Kansas with stints in Florida, North Carolina, and Texas. After graduating from Sarah Lawrence College, I moved to NYC, and have now lived here longer than anywhere else. Previous employers have included the Jim Henson Company and Upshot New York. Most recently, I worked as a communications and development specialist for Hall Farm Center, a Vermont-based arts and education organization.
