Taylor Sullivan
A violinist since the age of seven, Taylor has always been fascinated with violin shops and the behind-the-scenes work that goes into keeping instruments and bows in good playing condition.
She realized her specific interest in the bow after completing rehair and repair courses with bow maker Rodney Mohr.
Since then, she has enjoyed working with a variety of experts in the field, most recently at the 2024 Bow Restoration Workshop led by esteemed bow restorers David Orlin and Jerry Pasewicz.
Taylor has provided professional rehair and repair services in the Los Angeles area since 2022. She operates alongside the exceptional team of luthiers at Benning Violins.
She is an accomplished old-time fiddler and enjoys getting together with friends to play tunes.
