Cheryl Dunye

Cheryl Dunye (Liberia, 1966ko maiatzaren 13a) zinema zuzendari, ekoizle, gidoilari, editore eta aktore liberiar-estatubatuarra da, eta ezaguna da 1996an The Watermelon Woman filmagatik. 

 Biografia 
Dunye Liberian jaio zen, eta Filadelfian hazi zen. Templeko Unibertsitatean graduatu zen, eta Rutgers Unibertsitateko Masson Gross School of Art-en osatu zuen bere maisutasuna.

Kaliforniako Unibertsitatean (Los Angeles), UC Santa Cruz, Pitzer College, Claremont Graduate University, Pomona College, Kaliforniako Arteen Institutua, The New School of Social Research, Chicagoko School of the Art Institute eta San Frantziskoko Estatuko Unibertsitatean irakatsi izan du.

The Watermelon Woman, bere debuteko filma, zinemagile lesbiana beltza izan nahi duen emakume batengan ardazten da, zeinak lesbiana beltzen historia zinemaren historian ikusarazi nahi duen, bere lan propioa ekoizten saiatzen den bitartean, eta baieztatzen du "gure istorioak ez direla inoiz kontatuak izan". Dokumental faltsuaren gaia da Hollywooden lan egin duten lesbiana beltzek duten zailtasuna artxiboko iturrietan nabigatzeko, baztertzen edo ikusezin bilakarazten dituztelako; Fae Richards  fikziozko aktorea jartzen du adibide gisa; haren pertsonaiak ematen dio izena filmari izenburua.

1999an, Sundanceko Zinemaldiko epaimahaikide izan zen.

 Bizitza pertsonala 
Dunye lesbiana da.

Bi seme-alabaren ama da, eta gaur egun Oaklanden (Kalifornia) bizi da.
