Born and reared in a U.S. Army family, Quentin attended schools where his father's career took the family, graduating in 1946 from East High School in Denver, CO. After nearly 4 years in the Army, he graduated in 1957 from the School of Architecture, University of Virginia, receiving the Gold Medal of the American Institute of Architects. He worked for private firms in Paris, France, and San Francisco, California, before a 20-year career in the federal government in architecture, architectural preservation and art projects in San Francisco and Washington, D.C. In retirement he lives in Wilton Manors, Florida.
