Artist and author Quent Cordair is the owner and founder of Quent Cordair Fine Art, which is now the largest and oldest gallery that deals entirely in Romantic Realism. Romantic Realism, the movement which renews the high esthetic standards and techniques of pre-20th century ateliers, brings a rebirth of comprehensibility, beauty, romanticism and stylization to contemporary subject matter. The gallery's collection emphasizes themes which celebrate the moments of happiness, joy and success possible to Man on earth.

Quent Cordair founded his gallery in 1996 and since then has grown his collection to 24 artists, with over 500 paintings and sculptures available for sale. [1] Mr Cordair has written several short stories [2], has been published on multiple occasions in the Atlantean Press(no longer in print), and collaborated with writer/director Greg Bowyer on the screenplay of the 1995 short film For All It's Worth, which placed as a finalist in the '95 Santa Clarita Film Festival, the '95 Houston WorldFest and the '95 Charleston WorldFest.[3] He currently splits his time between his gallery and work on his first full-length novel. His paintings are collected by private and corporate collectors world wide.

Besides the founder of Quent Cordair Fine Art, Mr Cordair is well-known among the Objectivist community, and a supporter of the Ayn Rand Institute. To that end he co-founded the Golden Gate Objectivists in June of 2006, a small group that seeks to promote Objectivism in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Quent Cordair was wed to his "esteemed gallery director, dearest friend and cherished companion, Linda Zimmerman" on December 20th of 2006.[4]
