Education and career

Quinn went to Williams College as an undergraduate, graduating in 1985. She earned a master's degree from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 1987, and completed her doctorate at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1993.[2][3] Her dissertation, Colorings and Cycle Packings in Graphs and Digraphs, was supervised by Richard A. Brualdi.[4]

She taught at Occidental College until 2005, when she gave up her position as full professor and department chair to move with her husband,[2] biologist Mark Martin,[5] to Washington. She became a part-time lecturer, and executive director of the Association for Women in Mathematics, until earning a faculty position at Tacoma in 2007.[2]

Recognition

Quinn won a Distinguished Teaching Award from the Mathematical Association of America in 2001,[5] and the Deborah and Franklin Tepper Haimo Award for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics of the association in 2007.[2][6]

Quinn's book with Arthur T. Benjamin, Proofs that Really Count: The Art of Combinatorial Proof (2003) won the CHOICE Award for Outstanding Academic Title of the American Library Association[7] and the Beckenbach Book Prize of the Mathematical Association of America.[8]

In 2018, Quinn was elected an officer-at-large member of the board of directors of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA)[9]. In 2020, Quinn joined the board of directors of the MAA as president-elect. Her term as president began in 2021.[10] In 2022 she will become a fellow of the Association for Women in Mathematics, "For her outstanding achievements as a teacher, mentor, leader, expositor, and editor; for her pioneering service as AWM executive director; and for continued service as AWM volunteer and supporter."[11]
