Memphis Taylor was born in Sarasota Florida where he began acting at age 13. He would star in home movies that he and his childhood friends would make in the neighborhood they grew up in. Little did he know that later in life, acting would end up being the path that he would choose to follow. At an early age he knew acting was what he wanted to do but never had the guidance and influences to pursue it. So, he would end up playing baseball all the way through high school. That road ended when he discovered music and joined a band. The band was terrible but Memphis didn't care. It was an outlet for creativity and he was drawn to that. They would play local shows at bars and clubs but they never really caught any steam and eventually broke up. Memphis kept making music and decided that he would move to Los Angeles to chase his dream of becoming a successful songwriter. When he arrived in LA, he got the occasional gig here and there but something didn't feel right anymore. Memphis fell out of love with music. It just didn't do it for him anymore. Time went on and he lost his creative outlets. He was sucked into the LA lifestyle and began treading the slippery slope that is, Hollywood Boulevard. After another long night out ending with another sunrise, he made a promise to himself that he would stop wasting his life in Hollywood and would give acting a real shot. So he did. "Acting saved me from myself"
