About

Brent Taylor is a successful small business owner, outspoken conservative leader, and West Tennessee State Senator who has spent his career fighting for Tennesseans. He was born and raised in a rural community before moving to Tennessee after school. In 1995, he became the youngest person ever elected to the Memphis City Council at age 27. Taylor, who never voted for a tax increase, was viewed as the leading conservative voice on the Council. After 12 years, he chose to leave the Council to focus on his business interests.

In 2004, Taylor and his wife, Kimberly, purchased their first funeral home. They bought other area funeral homes and built their business into the largest family-owned funeral operation in the Mid-South. Taylor remained involved in public service, first filling a vacancy on the County Commission on an interim basis and then serving as an Election Commissioner for three years. Taylor served as Chairman of the Election Commission until his resignation to run for the State Senate. Throughout his career in the funeral business and as a public official, Taylor has been recognized as a trusted conservative leader.

Taylor was elected to the State Senate with over 66% of the vote. In the Senate, he serves as Vice Chairman of the Commerce Committee and sits on both the Judiciary and Transportation committees. Taylor is recognized as the community’s leading voice in the battle against crime.
