Taylor went to art college in North Wales and then worked as a receptionist at the Sotheby's outpost in Chester, England selling catalogues. She continued at Sotheby's for 20 years, working to develop a collectibles department.[3] In 2003 she decided to set up her own auction house, specialising in fashion and textiles. Originally based in West Dulwich,[9][unreliable source] the Kerry Taylor Auctions saleroom is now located in Bermondsey.

Personal life

Kerry Taylor was born in Cheshire in 1960. Taylor grew up in North Wales to a father who was a farmer. Taylor was married to Jon Baddeley, with whom she has two children. She is now married to Paul Mack, a potter.[3]
