“Stephanie Taylor is a true “Renaissance” woman. She is, without doubt, the most creative and versatile person I have ever met. I make this statement based on my forty-year career working in rare book and history libraries. Stephanie combines a keen sense of place with an equally keen sense of history. The murals that she has created that adorn scores of public buildings across the country are not only of striking artistic merit but also incorporate easily recognizable historical and contemporary themes that appeal to a general audience.” Gary Kurutz, Curator Emeritus, California State Library Collections
