Regina Annette Taylor is West Dallas’ finest. An American actress, playwright and producer, the Pinkston High School graduate who also graduated from SMU has won several awards including a Golden Globe Award and two NAACP Image Awards. She served as the Denzel Washington Endowed Chair in Theater at Fordham University and soon she will return to Dallas when the new Fine Arts Department at Pinkston High School will be named in her honor. This year she will portray Marian Shields Robinson, the mother of former First Lady Michelle Obama, in the new Showtime limited series, The First Lady. Talk about gracious, humble and classy; she’s all that and more!
