Want to know why Quinn's favorite subject is history? It's because he wants to be a historian when he's older.

Quinn hopes that his experience as a Kid Reporter will show him what it's like to be a journalist. "I think kids need to get involved so they know about politics and political issues at an early age," he says.

In his spare time, Quinn likes to play games on his computer. His favorites are war games.

Quinn is an eighth-grader at his middle school in Maryland. He has three siblings.
