Look out _______ (enter international modeling agency name here). Cathy Quinn, the brains and the eye that propelled Ford Models to the top of the food chain (no pun intended) has started her own agency, Cathy Quinn Models Inc.

Quinn who is viewed as a legend in the modeling world has helped mold some of the finest talent (think Christie Brinkley, Elaine Irwin Mellencamp, Rachel Hunter and more) that has ever graced the glossy world of magazines. Quinn the long time VP of Celebrity Clients at Ford is unique also with her business sense. Negotiating killer contracts over breakfast at Balthazar, Quinn has closed ground breaking deals with such brands as Fendi, Chanel, Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, Diane von Furstenberg, Calvin Klein and Ralph Lauren – not to mention her Crème de la Crème contacts in the beauty industry. That strange crunching sound you hear is nervous eating at the house of Ford. Good luck Cathy Quinn!
