Hello, I’m Albert Taylor, an actor and model living in New York City.

My journey in the acting and modeling professions began in the 1980s when I temporarily relocated to Paris. During my 4 years there, I modeled for a host of designers, including Patrick Kelly, Givenchy, Paco Rabbane, Lecoanet Hemant and Bjorn Borg Sportswear. I also appeared in print and commercial advertising for L’Oreal Paris, BNP Paribas and Mal de Beouf, a haircare product marketed in the Caribbean and was featured in the film Glamour, a Francoise Merlet production. One of the highlights of my career during that period was working with one of my childhood idols, Eartha Kitt, where I was featured in the music video of her international hit, I Love Men. In addition to acting and modeling, I began to sing, working as a studio backup singer for Al Douglas, an English Producer, Singer/Songwriter.

When I returned to New York City, I enriched my vocal technique by working with Therman Bailey and sharpened my acting skills at HB Studios. I appeared in one-man shows at Cafe Metropolis, Nells, Sweetwaters, and the West Bank Cafe. My acting credits include the off-Broadway productions of the King & Me, Macbeth, Antigone, the Raft of the Medusa and the Color of God, as well as the independent features Joe’s Story and Black is White, White is Black.

Thereafter, I embarked on a technology-oriented career path at the law firm Friedman Kaplan Seiler & Adelman where I recently retired. Still, I remained actively involved in the arts, continuing my vocal lessons, acting studies and occasional performances.

I am excited to begin a new chapter of my journey: the full-time pursuit of acting, modeling and performing opportunities, and I look forward to working with you!
