Biography

The illustrious Malcolm John Taylor, born on June 13, 1943 in Leeds, England, to working-class parents, had a noble intention to rise above his station. His father, Charles Taylor, a publican, was an alcoholic and set him on a path to private school at the young age of 11. There, at the Tunbridge Boarding School and the Cannock House School in Eltham, Kent, his drive for excellence was nurtured. Despite the weekly punishments for his wayward behavior, Malcolm persevered and decided to pursue a career in acting. His love for race cars blossomed around this time as well. He dedicated himself to excelling, enrolling in the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts (LAMDA) to study acting. He even worked at his parents' pub, only to later find that his father had drank all the profits. With an unwavering spirit, Malcolm continued to work a variety of jobs to support his acting aspirations. Little did he know that his persistence would soon bring him the fame and glory he had so long sought.
