About Maureen Taylor, Photo Detective
In 1978, Maureen Taylor fell in love at first sight--with a shiny metal photograph known as a daguerreotype.
The people looked real and touchable as if they could step out of the frame into the present. In a moment, all the history she’d studied and the families she researched came together. She knew this was not infatuation, but the real thing.
She’s never looked back. As a photo curator, genealogist, and now as a writer and photo identification/preservation expert, the focus of Maureen’s work remains family photography, history and genealogy. Through PhotoDetective.com, she’s dedicated to helping those who share her infatuation with discovering the stories behind images of the past.
Maureen is the author of a number of books and magazine articles, as well as a contributing editor at Family Tree Magazine and editorial board member of Legacy Magazine.
