Knowledge is power, community is strength, and positive attitude is everything. That simple statement summarizes exactly who Bill Taylor was as a man, a journalist, and a father.
Kwao Taylor is extremely proud of his father’s legacy. “He did it his way, coining the show and the phrase “Positively Milwaukee”, do something positive today. You know that in and of itself was a twist on the news that I had never seen before as a kid. There’s a lot of you know, just the realities of this world that the news has to depict and portray, and my father, you know, decided to go another route,” he said.
Bill Taylor worked at TMJ4 for 29 years, was inducted into the Silver Circle by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences for his years of service, and also inducted into the Milwaukee Press Club. His work as a journalist was important, but family was always his top priority.
