Julie Ann Unangst Quinn (born October 26, 1966) is an attorney from Metairie, Louisiana. A Republican, she is a former member of the Louisiana State Senate, representing District 6, which previously included parts of Orleans (a portion of Uptown), Jefferson, St.Tammany, and Tangipahoa parishes.

Quinn was elected after winning a special election runoff held in July 2005 against fellow Republican Diane Winston of Covington, then a state representative. The position became available by the death of veteran Republican lawmaker John Hainkel.

Quinn is the oldest of three children born to Bruce Edward Unangst (born ca. 1949), a native of Greenville in Mercer County in northwestern Pennsylvania, and the former Shirley Ann Lineman (born 1948). She has two brothers—attorney Bruce Unangst II, of Gonzales in Ascension Parish and Christopher Martin Unangst. Her father, the first president of the combined parish and municipal government in St. Tammany Parish, is a real estate agent and banker in Covington. Quinn’s mother also had political aspirations and unsuccessfully sought the District 76 seat in St. Tammany Parish in the Louisiana House of Representatives in a four-candidate all-Republican field in the nonpartisan blanket primary held on October 19, 1991. In the second round of balloting, the incumbent Edward C. Scogin of Slidell, was unseated for the position that Shirley nangst sought by Suzanne Mayfield Krieger.
