Timeline
Thomas Griffin Dunne (born June 8, 1955) is an American actor, film producer, and film director.
Dunne studied acting at The Neighborhood Playhouse School of the Theatre in New York City.
Dunne and his co-producers, Amy Robinson and Mark Metcalf, had formed their production company, Triple Play Productions, in the late 1970s and optioned Beattie's book after agreeing to her stipulation that she be given a role.
The film had a less than successful short run in theaters when it was released three years earlier with a "happy" ending and an alternate title, at the insistence of the distributor, United Artists.
The trio persevered to have the film re-released with a more realistic ending and the same title as the book, which proved more successful.
Dunne had a small part in the film, as Mark, a young doctor.
After Mark Metcalf left the company, Dunne and Robinson continued as producing partners.
Their company, now called Double Play Productions, produced several films, including Baby It's You, After Hours, Running on Empty and Game 6.
Dunne began his professional acting career at age 19 with a small supporting role in The Other Side of the Mountain in 1975.
He is known for portraying Jack Goodman in An American Werewolf in London (1981) and Paul Hackett in After Hours (1985), for which he was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy.
Thomas Griffin Dunne was born in New York City.
He is the oldest child of Ellen Beatriz (née Griffin) and Dominick Dunne.

His mother founded the victims' rights organization Justice for Homicide Victims after Dominique's murder in 1982.
His father was a producer, writer, and actor.
Raised in Los Angeles, Dunne attended the Fay School in Southborough, Massachusetts and Fountain Valley School in Colorado Springs, where he developed an interest in acting, appearing in many school plays.

Dunne was subsequently expelled, and moved back to New York to pursue his acting interests.
He studied acting at the Neighborhood Playhouse School of the Theatre under Sanford Meisner.
Dunne's first experience as a producer was the successful 1982 film, Chilly Scenes of Winter, an adaptation of the 1976 novel of the same name by Ann Beattie.
In 1986, the company had signed an agreement with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer for a two-year production agreement.
