A native of England, Daniel Taylor grew up in Canada and moved to the United States in 1991. He studied cultural anthropology and fine art at Princeton University, where he focused on the culture of autoworkers in a factory near Toronto. He has worked in new media, broadcasting, and fine art photography in New York City and is currently a Ph.D. candidate in anthropology at Harvard University.

Mr. Taylor spent two years living in China and working for Habitat for Humanity where he made photographs documenting the experience of isolation in the rapidly developing nation. He currently lives in Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula and hopes to continue to combine his background in anthropology with photography to look at the cultural conditions surrounding people and their environments.
