Chris Taylor was first elected to the Wisconsin Assembly in 2011, inspired to run by Gov. Scott Walker's cuts to public education. In her short tenure in the Legislature, Taylor has made a big impression, and a few of her Democratic colleagues are already thinking she could, someday, be Wisconsin's first woman governor.
Isthmus contributor Mary Ellen Bell reports on Rep. Taylor's rising star in the May 23 issue and discussed her story with WORT news director Molly Stentz on the same day's installment of In Our Backyard.
