Career

Quest began working with the BBC from the United States as part of the then-fledgling BBC News 24 network. In a regular segment called World Business Report that aired between 2:00 a.m. and 3:00 a.m. (GMT), he was the business correspondent covering the world stock market and commenting on the global stock market. He has appeared on the BBC's early-morning Business Breakfast show as a special guest.
Quest first appeared on CNN in 2001 with the introduction of Business International. Quest has covered a number of events for CNN, including an overview of the US elections as American Quest and the issuance of euro banknotes and coins on 1 January 2002, the last official commercial flight of Concorde. He has also been involved in CNN's coverage of several events involving the British Royal Family.
Quest turned down a chance to join the English language version of al-Jazeera "on the grounds that being gay and Jewish would not be appropriate."
