Don Carlos Dunaway

Don Carlos Dunaway (fl. 1974-1993) is an American screenwriter known for his work on television programs of the 1970s. He wrote episodes for Baretta, The Rockford Files,[1] and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.[2] In 1978 he co-created the TV series Kaz with Ron Leibman. In 1985 he directed an episode of The Twilight Zone. He lives in France with his wife who is a very good painter and with his cat Lou Lou. He has one son and one daughter. He also has 4 granchild

Dunaway worked primaily in television, but also co-wrote the screenplays for Impulse and Cujo. He said that his primary contribution to the Cujo script was to remove the explicitly supernatural elements, because "if you have a perfectly set up rational explanation for the bad stuff... the supernatural stuff is redundant and distracting."[3]
