Quillen was born in Scott County, Virginia, near the Tennessee line. Scott County is a county located in the US state &mdash officially " Commonwealth " &mdash of Virginia. He graduated from Dobyns-Bennett High School in Kingsport, Tennessee in 1934. High school is the name used in some parts of the world (in particular Scotland, North America and Australia) to describe an institution Kingsport is a city in Hawkins and Sullivan counties in the U Year 1934 ( MCMXXXIV) was a Common year starting on Monday (link will display full 1934 calendar of the Gregorian calendar. He worked as a copy boy and advertising salesman for a newspaper in Kingsport.
In 1936, Quillen invested his personal savings to become a publisher of a weekly Johnson City newspaper and resided at the Montrose Court Apartments in Johnson City, Tennessee during this period of his life.

Prior to the U. S. entry into World War II, Quillen received a two-year Selective Service System Class 3-A draft deferment beginning in 1940. The Selective Service System is the means by which the United States administers military Conscription. Quillen later served in the United States Navy as a public information officer from late 1942 to 1946, first receiving his overseas orders in 1944.

Eventually becoming a Kingsport and Johnson City based real estate development and insurance company owner (starting Kingsport Development Company, Inc. Johnson City is the name of several places in the United States: Johnson City Kansas Johnson City New York ), and bank executive following World War II, Quillen also was elected to the Tennessee House of Representatives in 1954 as a Republican, serving four terms in that body.

In 1961, B. Carroll Reece, who had represented Tennessee's 1st congressional district for all but six of the last 40 years, died in office.

Quillen decided not to run for a fifth term in the state house in 1962, instead seeking the Republican nomination for the 1st District, which was based in the Tri-Cities region (of which Kingsport is one of the nuclei). Year 1962 ( MCMLXII) was a Common year starting on Monday (the link is to a full 1962 calendar of the Gregorian calendar. In Tennessee and Virginia the name " Tri-Cities " refers to the region comprising the cities of Kingsport, Johnson City and Bristol This area of the state, like most of East Tennessee, has been heavily Republican since shortly before the Civil War — in fact, Republicans (and their antecedents) had held the seat for all but four years since 1859. East Tennessee is a name given to approximately the eastern third of the state of Tennessee, one of Causes of the war See also Origins of the American Civil War, Timeline of events leading to the American Civil War The coexistence of a slave-owning South Under the circumstances, Quillen's election in the fall was a foregone conclusion. He was reelected 16 more times without anything resembling serious opposition. He faced no major-party opposition in 1966 and 1980, and was unopposed in 1984 and 1990. Year 1966 ( MCMLXVI) was a Common year starting on Saturday (link will display full calendar of the 1966 Gregorian calendar.

Quillen's popularity was not due only to his district's heavy Republican tilt, but because of his reputation for strong constituent service. However, in his 34 years in Congress, Quillen sponsored only three pieces of original federal legislation (including Social Security "notch babies" benefit adjustment and an anti-flag desecration amendment to the Constitution). Social Security, in the United States currently refers to the federal Old-Age Survivors and Disability Insurance ( OASDI) program Flag desecration is a term applied to various acts that intentionally deface a Flag, most often a National flag (though other flags can be defaced as well
While serving as governor of Tennessee, fellow Republican Winfield Dunn incurred Quillen's wrath by opposing the establishment of a medical school at East Tennessee State University. Bryant Winfield Culberson Dunn (born July 1, 1927) was Governor of Tennessee from 1971 to 1975 Medical education A medical school or faculty of medicine is a Tertiary educational institution—or part of such an institution—that teaches Medicine East Tennessee State University ( ETSU) is an accredited American University, founded October 2, 1911 and located in Johnson Dunn claimed that Tennessee lacked the resources to adequately staff and fund two first-rate medical schools and that more resources should instead be devoted to the existing medical school in Memphis, which was approximately 500 miles from Quillen's district. Memphis is a City in the southwest corner of Tennessee, and the County seat of Shelby County.
One reason for Quillen's wrath may have been that Dunn was from Memphis himself, and perhaps Quillen felt that Dunn was showing too much favoritism to his hometown. There has been considerable acrimony between East Tennessee and the state's other grand divisions dating back to settlement times. Whatever the case, Quillen never forgave Dunn, and it came back to haunt Dunn when he ran for governor again in 1986. Year 1986 ( MCMLXXXVI) was a Common year starting on Wednesday (link displays 1986 Gregorian calendar) Quillen made it known in East Tennessee Republican circles that Dunn was not to be supported. Dunn managed to overcome Quillen's opposition and won the nomination. However, without significant support in East Tennessee, Dunn stood almost no chance against the popular Democratic State House Speaker, Ned McWherter. The Democratic Party is one of two major Political parties in the United States, the other being the Republican Party. The Tennessee House of Representatives, is the Lower house of the Tennessee General Assembly, the state Legislature of the U The term speaker is a title often given to the presiding officer of a legislative body Ned Ray McWherter (born October 15, 1930) is an American politician who served as the 46th Governor of Tennessee from 1987 to 1995 Only a large turnout in his former Memphis base kept the margin of defeat to under nine points.
The ETSU medical school was subsequently built anyway as the ETSU Quillen-Dishner College of Medicine, "before a homosexual sex scandal linked to one of the school's early benefactors and teachers removed Dishner's name from institutional signage" [1], and is now officially known as the East Tennessee State University James H. Quillen College of Medicine. The James H Quillen College of Medicine is a Medical school, part of East Tennessee State University located in Johnson City Tennessee.
Quillen's fellow Republicans passed him over in 1990 for consideration as ranking Republican on the House Rules Committee in favor of Gerald Solomon of New York, even though Quillen was the committee's most senior member. The Committee on Rules, or (more commonly Rules Committee, is a committee of the United States House of Representatives. Gerald Brooks Hunt Solomon ( August 14, 1930 &ndash October 26, 2001) was a New York Republican Politician. New York ( is a state in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern regions of the United States and is the nation's third most populous An unnamed fellow committee member was once quoted by the Kingsport Times-News (October 4, 1992) as saying, "Jimmy's one helluva nice guy, . . . but let's face it. He couldn't organize a one-car funeral. " He thus lost a chance to become the committee's chairman when the Republicans gained control of Congress after the 1994 elections. Year 1994 ( MCMXCIV) was a Common year starting on Saturday (link will display full 1994 Gregorian calendar)
Another important fact buttressing Quillen's re-election campaign finance efforts, according to Vin Weber of the Brookings Institution, was the Northeast Tennessee congressman's ". . . tremendous success. . . in shaking down the business community for [campaign] contributions. "[2]
Quillen amassed a large campaign treasury due to having received many large individual and PAC contributions, including those well financed PACs representing the beer, wine, and spirits beverage industries, but never really needed to use it given the heavy Republican tilt of his district. In the US, a Political Action Committee, or PAC, is the name commonly given to a private group regardless of size organized to elect political candidates Many political observers expected Quillen to retire before a change in federal election campaign finance laws made it illegal to convert the balance of campaign treasury funds to personal use by merely declaring them as income and paying the federal income tax then due; he did not do so and continued to seek re-election past the deadline.
Quillen did decide to retire prior to the 1996 election and was succeeded by Circuit Court Judge William L. Jenkins, a fellow Republican. Year 1996 ( MCMXCVI) was a Leap year starting on Monday (link will display full 1996 Gregorian calendar) William Lewis "Bill" Jenkins (born November 29[[ 936]] is a Politician from the state of Tennessee. He holds the record for the longest unbroken tenure in the U. S. House in Tennessee history. Only Reece had been elected to more terms in the House (18 to Quillen's 17), and only Kenneth McKellar had served in both chambers longer. Kenneth Douglas McKellar ( January 29, 1869 &ndash October 25, 1957) was an American Politician from Tennessee Quillen died on November 2, 2003 and was buried at Oak Hill Cemetery in Kingsport. Events 1570 - A Tidal wave in the North Sea devastates the coast from Holland to Jutland, killing more than 1000 Year 2003 ( MMIII) was a Common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar.

Quillen's estate was valued at approximately $17 million, with the majority going to schools in his district. King College, Milligan College, Carson-Newman College, and Tusculum College each received $250,000 for scholarships.
