Paul Quarrington
Paul Lewis Quarrington (July 22, 1953 – January 21, 2010)〔(Paul Quarrington ) entry in The Canadian Encyclopedia.〕 was a Canadian novelist, playwright, screenwriter, filmmaker, musician and educator.
==Background==
Born in Toronto as the middle of three sons in the family of four of Bruce Quarrington,〔("Paul Quarrington’s father taught at York" ), YLife, January 25, 2010.〕 he was raised in the suburb of Don Mills and studied at the University of Toronto but dropped out after less than two years of study.
He wrote his early novels while working as the bass player for the group Joe Hall and the Continental Drift and as the guitar accompanist for Cathy Stewart, a Canadian singer who was popular at the time. One of his novels, ''Whale Music'', was called "the greatest rock'n'roll novel ever written" by ''Penthouse'' magazine. His non-fiction books and journalism were also highly regarded – he earned or co-earned more than 20 gold awards for his magazine articles alone.〔("Writer Paul Quarrington remembered." ) Masthead January 22, 2010〕
Quarrington's most consistent musical colleague has been Martin Worthy; their friendship began in high school. He was also a high school friend of songwriter Dan Hill, with whom he reunited toward the end of his life to collaborate on musical projects.〔("Paul and me and one last song. About dying." ) ''Maclean's'', February 3, 2010.〕 Quarrington collaborated with many artists (a defining element of his overall body of work) who achieved recognition in their respective disciplines. These include Nino Ricci, Joseph Kertes, Dave Bidini, Jake MacDonald, John Krizanc, Christina Jennings, Judith Keenan, Michael Burke, Peter Lynch, Ron Mann, Robert Lantos and many others.
