Myron Charles Taylor was born on January 18, 1874 in Lyons, New York. He received an LL.B. from Cornell University in 1894. He was admitted to the New York bar the following year, and began practicing law at the firm De Forest and De Forest. He became an expert in corporation law and handled legal matters for various textile companies. On February 21, 1906, he married Anabel Stuart Mack; they had no children. He eventually abandoned practicing law and devoted his full attention to the reorganization and development of several textile companies. By 1923 he had divested himself of most of his textile interests and devoted himself to banking and railroad directorships. In 1927, he became Chairman of the Finance Committee of the U.S. Steel Corporation. He served as Chairman of Finance from 1927 to 1934. In 1932, J. Pierpont Morgan stepped aside as Chief Executive Officer, and Taylor assumed full executive power in the company. He served as Chairman of the Board and CEO of U.S. Steel Corporation from 1932 to 1938. From 1939 to 1950, Taylor served as Personal Representative of the President of the United States to Pope Pius XII, and from 1950 to 1952 he served as Personal Representative of the President of the United States on Special Missions. Myron Taylor died in New York City on May 6, 1959.
