Taylor has spent most of his life living in the Greater Cincinnati Area which serves as the background for Bits and Pieces. After matriculating from Georgetown College and Xavier University, his career was spent in various professions including criminal justice, technical recruiting and retail management. He has always had a life-long interest in local and social history. By making Bits and Pieces a period piece set in the local area, he has tried to incorporate much of the flavor and life of Cincinnati in the 1890's. With his wife and three cats, the author is retired and lives in Cheviot. Bits and Pieces is his second published work.view less
