Whitaker also introduced Quest to then CBS anchor Walter Cronkite. Later, Quest would write a script for Cronkite documenting the Lower Pecos Indians of Texas. The presentation was narrated by KENS TV anchor Chris Marrou. Over two decades, Quest Productions would produce and Marrou would narrate over 30 films/videos/presentations for a long list of clients. Subjects ranged from children with Muscular Dystrophy to captains of industry, including three presidents of the United States, photographed for political advertising legend Lionel Sosa.

Quest’s career in photography and related activities has spanned nearly four decades. The varied projects and assignments included work for an eclectic clientele^.
