Tom Quiner
Tom Quiner has written and spoken on the intersection of faith, culture, and politics in a variety of platforms for over four decades. As board president of Pulse Life Advocates, he focuses on creative ways to advance the pro-life cause in these same arenas.
Quiner offers an eclectic resume. He founded Breakthrough Marketing in 1987 with his wife, Karen; has written and produced ten musicals and one non musical, “A Clash of Creeds”; and blogs extensively on pro-life issues on Pulse’s online blog.
On weekends, you’ll find him behind the piano at Catholic Masses at Holy Trinity Catholic Church.
Most recently, he wrote and produced “Women of Worth,” a musical event sponsored by Pulse. It featured the premier of “The Story of Joan, the epic saga of the Maiden of Orléans, Joan of Arc.”
He believes the pro-life movement must tap the arts to help counter a culture saturated with anti-life music and films.
