Director's Biography

Weston Taylor, filmmaker portrait provided to AFIN. Weston Taylor Director

Weston Taylor is a director, writer and producer originating from the state of Maine. He went to film school in New York at Syracuse University before venturing to Los Angeles to further pursue his lifelong dream of directing. He is currently a producer for true crime documentaries being featured on various streaming services such as Netflix, Discovery+, A&E and CNN.

While we are all different, we are very much the same.
