Elizabeth Taylor - A Film Legend - Dies At 79


Elizabeth Taylor was truly a household name for generations. My mother was so moved by Elizabeth Taylor's stardom, she named her first born child, Yvette Elizabeth Taylor. Yes, that would be me. So, I guess hearing about the death of this particular legend moved me personally and otherwise.

Elizabeth Rosemond Taylor was born in London on Feb. 27, 1932, the daughter of Francis Taylor, an art dealer, and the former Sara Sothern, an American stage actress. At age 3, with extensive ballet training already behind her, Taylor danced for British princesses Elizabeth (the future queen) and Margaret Rose at London's Hippodrome. At age 4, she was given a wild field horse that she learned to ride expertly.

Her family moved to the United States where she begin her movie career at age 10. The rest is Hollywood legend. Clearly, Elizabeth Taylor has a significant estate which we will follow its administration. Her children include her daughters Maria Burton-Carson and Liza Todd-Tivey; and, sons Christopher and Michael Wilding, and several grandchildren.
