Nick Taylor's non-fiction books cover a wide variety of subjects, from bass fishing to the Mafia to life in a small church. The Washington Post called A Necessary End, his memoir of his parents in their final years "one of the key stories of our time." His American-Made: the Enduring Legacy of the WPA, is an award-winning history of the New Deal's signature jobs program. His collaboration with the late astronaut and U.S. Senator John Glenn produced John Glenn: A Memoir, a New York Times bestseller. Taylor lives with his wife in New York City.
