As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
As a seasoned entrepreneur, executive producer, author, screenwriter, chief executive officer, and cattle rancher, Mr. Quigley's diverse career is a testament to his versatility and adaptability. He is the owner of Thundersmoke Media, LLC, where he has been a producer and executive producer on such films as "Magic Boys," "Breaking Wind," "Wicked Blood," and a web series called "In the Bag." Mr. Quigley completed work on a film called "Remorse" for the Lifetime Network Channel. "Remorse," was retitled "Apparition" for general release, won awards at 13 festivals and received five nominations for additional awards. Another of Mr. Quigley's film projects, titled "Impuratus" featured the late iconic actor Tom Sizemore, was released in 2023.
Before establishing his current endeavors, Mr. Quigley was the owner and partner of B&B Entertainment Group and the founder and chief executive officer of The Quigley Corporation, which became publicly traded on the NASDAQ in 1991. Through the eponymous company, he developed and marketed a zinc-centric cold remedy called Cold-Eeze, which remains on the shelves today. Additionally, it was recently discovered that a new variation of the lozenge's formulation could assist patients suffering from Barrett's Esophagus, which leads to cancer of the esophagus.
During the early stages of his career, Mr. Quigley gained valuable expertise in sales management with a London-based company, where he increased sales by 280 percent. After many years with the organization, he sold it to pursue a joint venture with his wife in a castle estate in Zambia, where she was born. Over ten years, he and his wife built a 40,000 acre property with 5,000 cattle, including 100 pedigree Semmintaler cattle flown in from Bavaria, Germany. However, the liberation war within neighboring Zimbabwe where he encountered a number of altercations with terrorism caused them to move, changing the course of his career.
Throughout his career, Mr. Quigley has been recognized for his outstanding contributions. He has received the Summit Creative Bronze Award, a Silver Addy Award, was a finalist in the Delaware Valley 1997 Ernest & Young "Entrepreneur Of The Year" Award and several other awards for excellence in business and technology.

However, he takes the most pride in his 14-year tenure in Africa, during which he immersed himself in the local culture and agricultural practices.
Though hard work and dedication have brought him far in his career, Mr. Quigley credits his success to his two greatest mentors, his father and father-in-law. Within the coming years, he intends to engage in further film projects, demonstrating his continued involvement and exciting future plans in the film industry.
