I feel incredibly fortunate to have spent over 30 years doing what I love, with people I deeply respect and admire. It's been an absolute privilege to work with late Company Founder George Beasley, Caroline, Brian and Bruce over the years."

Beasley Media Group CEO Caroline Beasley praised Dunn's career and lasting impact on the organization.
