Taylor is one of Richard's teachers when he is attending the university. Through his incredible genius at interpreting texts, Richard is inspired to change his major to Literature at the expense of his father's approval. After Richard and C. move back to U. together, Taylor invites Richard and C. to come to a conference, partly on account of Richard's literary success. Taylor, his wife, Richard, and C. become close friends. They often meet for dinner and discussion.
