Who is Brian Quintana?

Brian Quintana is a Hollywood producer and socialite best known for his celebrity contacts. In 2010 Brian ran for United States Senate (D.CA) and captured 338,442 votes. He is currently co-producing the upcoming Superman: Man of Steel. He spent two and a half years as Jon Peters top executive where he helped re-launch the Superman franchise, oversaw marketing and communications, and developed new business. He has produced some of Hollywood's most visible events, served on national boards, and raised over $5.2 million for charities addressing youth, women, and communities of color. Prior to that Brian served as a VIP facilitator to countless world billionaires, celebrities, and elected officials. Politically, he has been linked to five US Presidents, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, and numerous federal, state, and local officials of both parties. As a candidate for the California State Legislature, Brian captured 40% of the votes in Hollywood, but deferred two years later to the current Mayor of Los Angeles, Antonio Villaraigosa. Business leaders seek his political expertise and consider him one of the best PR strategist in America.

A native of Los Angeles, Oprah Winfrey's A Better Chance recruited him at age fifteen to attend the prestigious Hotchkiss School in Lakeville, Connecticut. Brian has been featured and quoted in the national media for his business, political, and charitable endeavors.

Famous Quotes:

  • "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
  • “Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising, which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires courage.”
