Marion Taylor grew up in Toronto and began her academic studies at the University of Toronto. Questions about how to negotiate the worlds of faith and the academic study of the Bible pushed her to pursue an MA in Near Eastern Studies and a Master of Divinity degree. Ultimately her journey took her to Yale University, where her interest in the history of the interpretation of the Bible was solidified. Under the direction of Brevard Childs, she wrote her doctoral thesis on the history of Old Testament studies as they developed at Princeton Seminary from 1812 to 1929.

At Yale in a class on apocalyptic literature, Marion met her husband Glen. Glen was from Calgary, but they returned to Toronto to teach at Wycliffe College. With Glen as residence dean, they lived at the College while raising three children and continuing to teach.

Marion began her search for forgotten women interpreters of the Bible in 2002, when a student asked if she could write a paper on a woman interpreter from the 19th century. This question has taken Marion on the greatest adventure of her life, as she and a team of students and scholars have unearthed the names and writings of hundreds of women throughout history.

Marion's most recent publications have included a commentary on Ruth and Esther, published in the Fall of 2020 in Zondervan’s Story of God Series. She is very excited that the book that she co-authored with Joy Schroeder, was recently published by Westminster John Knox Press. Marion is currently working on a book on Paul through the eyes of women from the sixteenth to the long nineteenth century.

In her spare time, Marion loves to spend time with her grandchildren, read, write, and walk her dog at the family cottage in northern Ontario.
