Taylor is known for her documentaries that work closely with celebrities to bring the viewers the best look at the celeb. Doing this gives viewers a true sense of the celeb rather than tabloids and sources close to them.

Taylor’s films are feature-length and her first feature film, “Hear And Now,” won multiple awards. She also earned an Oscar nomination for her 2009 film, “The Final Inch.”
