Aaron Taylor

Bio:
Born in nearby Olney, Maryland, Aaron Taylor finds his new position as an English and theater teacher at B-CC "exactly what I was looking for." In 10th grade, Mr. Taylor followed his friends into the high school's theater program, which inspired him to pursue theater professionally. Mr. Taylor went on to earn two degrees from the University of Maryland: one in theater, and the second in secondary education, specializing in English and theater. At college, he worked in wardrobe, lighting, costume, and stage management. His directing debut was with The Real Inspector Hound by Tom Stoppard (he was the dead body in his high school production of the play).

Besides his teaching duties, 10th-grade English honors and Theater 1, Mr. Taylor will direct the fall and spring plays and be involved with the Theater Festival. Mr. Taylor is quite active as a club sponsor, taking on the Improv, Drama, Shakespeare and WTP Biking clubs.

In his spare time, Mr. Taylor enjoys painting and drawing and just "chilling out." Asked to name his favorite all-time book, Mr. Taylor unhesitatingly offered F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby because the writing "is fluid and fun to read."
