Entrepreneur Hall of Fame Jim Dunn, along with his wife Ann Marie, founded J.R. Dunn Jewelers and has been recognized in the community of South Florida numerous times. Being named Entrepreneur of the Year by Nova Southeastern University will be an honor he will remember. Originally from Boston, Massachusetts, Jim and Ann Marie Dunn opened their first jewelry store, the House of Gems in Hanover, Massachusetts in 1969. This was the beginning of what would become 2 retail jewelry stores known as J.R. Dunn Jewelers. Today, J.R. Dunn Jewelers is a 8,000 square foot store in Lighthouse Point and another store on the world renowned Las Olas Boulevard. The Las Olas location received special recognition by being awarded the "Store of the Year" in 2002 by the Institute of Store Planners. Jim Dunn's honor came as a complete surprise even though in 2002 he was honored with the Sun-Sentinel's Excalibur Award for "Small Business Leader". Jim is actively involved in numerous charitable organizations and dedicates a lot of his time to the Boys' and Girls' Club of Broward County. In 1996, Jim organized "Dunn's Run" and over the past 11 years has raised over $1 million for the Boys' and Girls' Club.
