A collection of times [Dubuque, Iowa](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubuque,_Iowa) has shown up in pop culture. This list is by no means complete; I intend to add to it as I run into more Dubuque references. 

- [George R. R. Martin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_R._R._Martin) briefly taught English and Journalism at [Clarke College](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarke_University) from 1976 to 1978
- [Kate Mulgrew](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kate_Mulgrew) (Star Trek Voyager, Orange is the New Black) attended high school at [Wahlert Catholic High School](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wahlert_Catholic_High_School)
- [Mississippi Grind (2015)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi_Grind) briefly took place in Dubuque at the start of the movie. IIRC, it featured an establishing shot of Mulgrew's which is a bar across the river in East Dubuque, Illinois, but points for effort I guess.
- Law and Order: Special Victims Unit Season 17 Episode 20, Fashionable Crimes, features a victim who started out working at the Coldstone Creamery in Dubuque and moved to New York for a modeling job.
- In [You Were Never Duckier](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_Were_Never_Duckier), Daffy Duck says he came from Dubuque when he arrived at the National Poultry Show.
- [Field of Dreams](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_of_Dreams) had scene filmed in Dubuque
