Tim Gill

After jobs at Hewlett-Packard and a consulting services firm, Tim Gill started the company Quark, Inc. in 1981 with a $2,000 loan from his parents.

With the introduction of Fred Ebrahimi as CEO in 1986 and the launch of the company's flagship page layout software, QuarkXPress, in 1987, Gill became a multi-millionaire. 

Gill sold his fifty percent interest in Quark in 1999 for a reported $500 million, to continue his involvement in philanthropic and activist endeavours.
