2008 Fortunate 500: Heritage
HERITAGE
Top Pick Quality Quinn: A teacher who won top awards in Michigan and California, she went on to found Quality Quinn Inc., which provides educational consulting services from its Austin base. Quinn, when she is not soaking up the quiet among Austin ex-pats in Marfa, is shaking the bushes for the Austin Public Library Foundation and the Austin Project, among other causes. While not Old Austin by birth, she burnishes the scene by her mere presence. (Shown here with Brent Hasty and Amy Barbee)
