Samuel Jared Taylor (b. 1951) is a paleoconservative, white nationalist journalist. He is the editor of American Renaissance, a journal that addresses issues of race, immigration and their impact on societies in which Whites co-exist with non-Whites. A biannual American Renaissance conference is also held. President of the parent organization, New Century Foundation, Taylor also sits on the advisory board of The Occidental Quarterly and is a director of the National Policy Institute, a Washington-based thinktank.

Taylor has frequently been described as a racist and an advocate of white supremacy.

"Jared Taylor is the cultivated, cosmopolitan face of white supremacy," said Mark Potok, editor of Intelligence Report, the magazine of the Southern Poverty Law Center. "He is the guy who is providing the intellectual heft, in effect, to modern-day Klansmen."

Born to missionary parents in Japan, Taylor lived in Japan until he was sixteen years of age. Taylor graduated from Yale University in 1973 with a B.A. in Philosophy, and from Institut d'Etudes Politiques de Paris (Sciences Po) in 1978 with a M.A. in International Economics. Taylor speaks fluent English, Japanese and French.

In the 1980s, Taylor was West Coast editor of PC Magazine and a consultant before founding the American Renaissance periodical in 1990. Taylor has also taught Japanese to Summer school students at Harvard University.

He is the author of Shadows of the Rising Sun: A Critical View of the Japanese Miracle (1983); Paved With Good Intentions: The Failure of Race Relations in America (1993); The Tyranny of the New and other Essays (1992) and The Real American Dilemma: Race, Immigration, and the Future of America (1998). New Century Foundation published the report The Color of Crime: Race, Crime and Violence in America (1998, 2005). He wrote the foreword for A Race Against Time: Racial Heresies for the 21st Century, a collection to which he is principal contributor.

Taylor has also contributed to the Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times and National Review.
