[modifier] From ole wikipedia
Krissy was born “Kristen Erin Taylor” on May 15, 1978 in South Miami, Florida, where she became the youngest member of the Taylor family. Until the time of her death on July 2, 1995, she lived in South Florida with her family, consisting of Mom (Barbara), Dad (Ken) and sisters Joelle and Nicole.
At eleven, Krissy did her first shoot with sister Niki for Seventeen. They thought she was cute and it would make a cute story. Not long thereafter, she signed with a local agency (Irene Marie, Miami), but for awhile she was at an age (11-12) where she wasn’t “sophisticated” enough for shoots geared to older audiences, yet was too tall for the “kids division.” We waited.
Krissy then signed with Niki’s new agency in New York, IMG Models (International Management Group). She did some test shoots with Niki, for fun. Finally, when she turned 13, the fashion world took notice and she was pulled from the sidelines into the spotlight. That year, she walked the runway in Milan, Italy, during the fall fashion shows. Actually, she had just tagged along on the trip to keep Niki company, but she found herself being fitted by designers before she knew it! Then, there she was: walking with Naomi, Christy, Claudia and Niki—quite a bit of a “jump start!”
When she got back from Milan, she did some more shoots with Niki for Vogue, Elle, Mademoiselle, Glamour and Cover Girl® Then she started getting booked solo for Seventeen, YM and Cosmopolitan. Soon, television discovered her and did some specials on her with Niki. She wouldn’t do them unless Niki was there. By herself, Krissy was very shy of the television camera; but together, there was nothing they couldn’t conquer. Fittingly, one of the last shoots Krissy did was with Niki for the July/August 1995 cover of Ocean Drive magazine. Krissy was represented by IMG models, New York; Riccardo Guy, Milan; and IMG, London.
She was passed away on July 2, 1995. Her sudden death was caused by right ventricular dysplasia.

Name: Krissy Taylor Occupation: Model Date of Birth: May 15, 1978 Place of Birth: South Miami, FL., USA
Krissy was born "Kristen Erin Taylor" on May 15, 1978 in South Miami, Florida, where she became the youngest member of the Taylor family. Until the time of her death on July 2, 1995, she lived in South Florida with her family, consisting of Mom (Barbara), Dad (Ken) and sisters Joelle and Nicole. Growing up, she was an active visitor of the local roller-skating rink, a mascot and then cheerleader for the Optimist Club of North Dade, and from there her next activity was that of a fashion model, which started at the age of 13.
When Krissy first began attracting attention from the public, it was largely because she was Niki Taylor's younger sister. Three years after her first photo shoot, however, she had emerged from her sister's shadow and had begun to cast one of her own (measuring 6 feet!).
Early on, Krissy would go to shoots with Niki, and the clients and photographers took notice of her. They began to include her in photos with Niki, and even though they had very different personalities, their "look" seemed to go well together. In Milan, Italy, Krissy went to some of Niki's castings for the Fall Shows and the designers ended up fitting her, too! She was on the runways in Milan at 13, an amazing feat for a "newcomer"! After that, Krissy began getting calls to work solo.
Krissy was working up an impressive résumé of credits. She had worked with major magazines, such as Seventeen, Elle, Italian Glamour, YM, Cosmopolitan and Vogue. She had over 13 covers to her credit. Fox TV and Disney Films had requested her to read for upcoming features. She had appeared on Entertainment Tonight and MTV, and was featured on Who's HOT - Main Floor (a new show on fashion).
Krissy didn't like to travel, so most of her bookings were limited to the Miami area. Time was not a plentiful commodity, either, as Krissy, like her sister before her, had all intentions of completing school and leading a normal teenage life. Other areas of interest for Krissy were massage therapy and working with animals.
Many people asked if there was any jealousy between the sisters and Krissy was quick to comment, "Not at all." There was a lot of love between Krissy and the rest of her family.
Krissy didn't seem to mind the recognition involved in modeling, although it became a little too much when she and Niki went shopping together! It seemed one might be able to mistake them apart, but when they were together it was virtually impossible for them to escape recognition.
A handful of Krissy's favorite things: kids, animals, her niece (Blake), her twin nephews (Jake and Hunter), her BIG Chevy truck, the phone, country music, fast food, Pepsi (Coke), chewing gum and, of course, MTV. Her favorite actress was Demi Moore and Brad Pitt took honors as her favorite actor. Country superstar Garth Brooks toped her list for singer with the song "Shameless" (one of many, many beloved Garth songs).
