Felicia Taylor

Snapshot

Felicia Roderica Sturt Taylor (August 28, 1964 to September 8, 2023) was an American business journalist, television anchor, correspondent, and documentary producer whose name appears in multiple collections of Jeffrey Epstein’s released records.

The identified evidence includes three indexed aircraft flight segments in 1996 and 1997, an entry in Epstein’s contact book, communications from his office in September 2010, scheduling records for quantitative investment meetings in February 2013, a direct invitation to his Manhattan residence in September 2013, subsequent appointment schedules, automatic LinkedIn notifications in 2014, and a third-party communication concerning Taylor in 2015.

The documents establish several distinct forms of recorded contact and reference. They do not establish that Taylor participated in Epstein’s abuse or trafficking operation, knew about his crimes, or committed criminal wrongdoing.

Who Was Felicia Taylor?

Felicia Taylor was a television journalist best known for business reporting and news anchoring. Her career included work with the Financial News Network, Financial Times Television, WNBC, CNBC, and CNN International.

The published obituary in The New York Times identifies her as the daughter of actor Rod Taylor and fashion model Mary Hilem.

Taylor attended Milton Academy and graduated from Northwestern University with a bachelor’s degree in English.

She later worked in financial journalism, reporting on business and financial affairs for national and international television audiences.

Following her television career, Taylor produced Far From Home, a documentary concerning the effects of climate change on communities in Senegal, particularly children.

She died at her home in Palm Beach in September 2023 at age 59.

Her career in business journalism provides relevant context for her appearance in Epstein’s February 2013 quantitative investment meeting schedules. It does not independently establish that Taylor served as Epstein’s financial adviser or participated in investment transactions.

Family and Social Background

Taylor was born into a family with connections to the entertainment and real estate industries.

Her father, Rod Taylor, appeared in numerous films, including Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds. Her mother, Mary Hilem, worked as a fashion model.

Following her parents’ divorce, Taylor’s mother married Chicago real estate developer Arthur Rubloff, who adopted Felicia. Her mother later married Florida businessman Lewis M. Schott.

These relationships provide biographical context and help explain Taylor’s connections to New York and Palm Beach social environments.

However, family prominence and residence in locations associated with Epstein do not establish involvement in his activities.

Identity Verification

The professional biography and obituary identify a prominent journalist named Felicia Taylor. Epstein’s contact book and several scheduling records use the same name, and the financial journalism background is consistent with the subject appearing in investment-related meetings.

Nevertheless, the historical flight-log and contact-book records do not always contain complete biographical identifiers. Consequently, a responsible investigation should distinguish a strongly supported identity match from an independently authenticated identification on every document.

No unrelated person sharing the name should be incorporated into this profile without evidence establishing that the records concern the same individual.

Epstein’s Contact Book

A publicly indexed reproduction of Epstein’s address book contains an entry for Felicia Taylor on page 53.

The entry includes multiple telephone numbers and contact information. The existence of several contact methods suggests that her details were retained, but it does not prove that Epstein personally called each number or that all of the information remained current.

An address-book entry is evidence of retained contact information, not proof of an individual’s activities or knowledge.

EpsteinWiki does not reproduce historical private telephone numbers, residential addresses, or other sensitive contact details from the book.

Historical Flight Records

The Epstein Data flight-network index records three passenger appearances under Felicia Taylor’s name between August 18, 1996, and April 17, 1997.

These entries are important because they predate the later email and calendar evidence by more than a decade.

The indexed flight segments should be examined against original aviation records to resolve transcription errors, passenger-name variants, and aircraft-identification questions.

August 18, 1996: Teterboro to Martha’s Vineyard

The first recorded segment, numbered 876 in the historical transcription, traveled from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey to Martha’s Vineyard Airport in Massachusetts.

The reproduced passenger list includes Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, David Rothman, and Felicia Taylor.

The entry establishes a recorded shared flight. It does not explain the purpose of the trip or establish any activity after arrival.

August 18, 1996: Martha’s Vineyard to Teterboro

Flight 877 returned from Martha’s Vineyard to Teterboro on the same date.

The reproduced passenger list includes Jeffrey Epstein, David Rothman, and Felicia Taylor.

Ghislaine Maxwell is not listed on the return segment. This difference must be preserved rather than assuming all passengers on the outbound flight returned together.

April 17, 1997: Teterboro to Palm Beach

The third identified segment, numbered 968, records travel from Teterboro to Palm Beach International Airport.

Indexed flight-network data records Felicia Taylor as a fellow passenger of individuals associated with the Dubin family, including Glenn Dubin and related contacts.

The Epstein Data Dubin entity profile identifies one overlapping flight with Taylor on April 17, 1997.

The passenger grouping is relevant to understanding the social network represented in the aircraft records. It does not establish a financial relationship or criminal association.

Flight Evidence Summary

These are three flight segments, not necessarily three separate trips. The original handwritten or certified flight-log pages remain important for final verification of every passenger name and route.

September 2010: Epstein’s Office Attempts Contact

The September 2010 correspondence in EFTA02420570 identifies Felicia Taylor as a person Epstein’s assistant Lesley Groff was attempting to contact.

The message indicates that Groff had left a message seeking to determine Taylor’s availability.

The related EFTA02420571 record contains additional material associated with the same correspondence group.

This evidence shows an effort to initiate contact. It does not independently establish that Taylor returned the call, attended a meeting, or discussed a particular subject.

February 2013: Quantitative Investment Meetings

Several released documents describe quantitative investment meetings scheduled for February 21, 2013.

The EFTA01902800 meeting schedule identifies Todd Meister as the organizer and lists Steve Hanson, Jes Staley, Felicia Taylor, Michael Wolff, and Nicole Junkermann among the anticipated participants.

The related EFTA01902261 schedule repeats the intended meeting, scheduled between 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.

A further February 21 email, EFTA00954217, includes Taylor in an anticipated participant group and contains a request concerning arrangements for those attending.

These documents provide mutually consistent descriptions of a planned meeting but may derive from the same underlying calendar and communication chain.

They should not be counted as separate meetings simply because more than one copy was produced.

The Financial Meeting Context

The term quantitative investment commonly refers to investment strategies using statistical models, mathematics, or systematic analysis of financial data.

The records establish that Taylor’s name appeared among expected participants. They do not identify her as a portfolio manager, financial sponsor, or contractual participant.

Given her business journalism background, she may have had a professional interest in the subject. However, the documents do not explicitly establish her reason for being listed.

Other People Named in the Schedule

Jes Staley was a senior banking executive. Nicole Junkermann was an investor. Michael Wolff was a writer and media figure. Todd Meister and Steve Hanson were involved in the described arrangements.

The common schedule illustrates Epstein’s relationships across media and financial circles.

It does not establish a shared criminal enterprise, improper investment activity, or knowledge of Epstein’s trafficking operation.

September 17, 2013: Direct Invitation

The September 17, 2013 email, EFTA00383438, provides one of the clearest documented communications involving Felicia Taylor.

Lesley Groff wrote directly to Taylor on Epstein’s behalf, asking whether she could visit his Manhattan residence on September 19 at approximately 4:00 or 5:00 p.m.

The invitation identified Epstein’s East 71st Street residence in Manhattan.

Unlike a contact-book entry or a third-party message, this document establishes a communication addressed directly to Taylor.

It does not contain an independently verified acceptance or attendance record.

September 18, 2013: Tentative Appointment

The EFTA00970919 schedule lists a tentative appointment involving Taylor at 4:00 or 5:00 p.m. on September 19.

The EFTA00970901 record preserves another version of that tentative entry.

The EFTA00872613 correspondence also includes Taylor in an updated schedule.

These references reflect continuing planning. They do not, by themselves, establish that the meeting took place.

September 18 to 19, 2013: Revised Appointment Times

Multiple later schedule versions list Taylor at 5:00 p.m. or 5:45 p.m.

The EFTA00383317 schedule lists a 5:00 p.m. appointment.

The EFTA00383331 correspondence repeats the appointment in a forwarded scheduling chain.

The EFTA00383337 correspondence includes the same appointment in another circulated schedule.

The EFTA00639219 schedule also contains a 5:00 p.m. entry.

Meanwhile, the EFTA00383218 record lists the appointment at 5:45 p.m.

The EFTA01960505 version similarly places Taylor at 5:45 p.m.

These discrepancies are consistent with appointment revisions and repeated circulation of Epstein’s daily schedule.

They should not be interpreted as proof of multiple visits without separate evidence.

The September 19 Schedule in Context

The September 19 scheduling records place the proposed Taylor appointment among numerous other engagements.

The surrounding schedule includes travel from the United States Virgin Islands to New York, an appointment involving Rich and Darren, communications concerning Jes Staley, and later dinner arrangements involving Terje Rød-Larsen and Ehud Barak.

These entries describe Epstein’s intended daily activities. They do not demonstrate that Taylor attended every associated event or met the other people named in the schedule.

In particular, a person’s appearance on the same day as a dinner guest does not establish that the two attended a common gathering.

Appointment Schedule Reconciliation

The most defensible finding is that Epstein’s office attempted to arrange a meeting and repeatedly included Taylor in the September 19 appointment schedule.

The documents do not conclusively establish attendance, duration, purpose, or subjects discussed.

2014 LinkedIn Notifications

Two additional records discovered during this review contain references to Felicia Taylor in automated LinkedIn network activity emails.

The EFTA00684243 document contains a LinkedIn network update mentioning Taylor and a newly added connection.

The EFTA00684714 document includes another network digest referring to Taylor’s LinkedIn connections.

These records are significant primarily for source classification.

LinkedIn automatically generates activity digests that may mention individuals whose updates appeared in a recipient’s network. Such a notification is not a direct message from Taylor and does not establish an intentional communication with Epstein.

Nor does it prove that Epstein opened the message, clicked the profile, or maintained an active relationship with the person mentioned.

These documents should be categorized as incidental social-network notifications, separate from direct correspondence and meeting arrangements.

September 2015: Third-Party News Reference

The September 2015 correspondence, EFTA01805610, includes a third-party reference to news coverage involving Taylor.

The communication concerns a publicly reported driving-related incident.

Its relevance to the Epstein investigation is limited: the document records another person mentioning Taylor in correspondence with Epstein.

It does not demonstrate that Taylor personally contacted Epstein concerning the matter, received assistance from him, or involved him in legal proceedings.

The correspondence should not be treated as proof of the ultimate disposition of the reported incident.

Documented Chronology

Social and Professional Networks

The combined records place Taylor’s name within Epstein’s travel, contact, media, and financial meeting records.

Her reporting career provides a documented connection to the world of financial news. Her flight records create travel overlaps with Epstein and other individuals. The February 2013 schedules place her name among people invited or expected to participate in a financial discussion.

These are different kinds of relationships and should be analyzed separately.

There is no evidentiary basis in the reviewed material for treating Taylor as a financial partner, media fixer, trafficking facilitator, or criminal participant.

Why Duplicate Documents Matter

A common problem in Epstein Files research is the repeated production of the same email or schedule under different Bates numbers.

For example, the September 19, 2013 Taylor appointment appears in numerous document records. These may represent forwarded email chains, revised schedules, or copies retained in different investigative collections.

Counting each occurrence as a separate meeting would exaggerate the underlying evidence.

The correct method is to organize all versions into one event group, preserve their document identifiers, and identify any meaningful differences in dates, times, recipients, or wording.

Full Identified EFTA Evidence Inventory

The table below consolidates the principal document references identified in the research. The records should be understood as an identified inventory, not a certification that every occurrence in the complete released corpus has been located.

What Has Been Established

The records establish that Felicia Taylor’s name appears across multiple distinct evidence types.

Historical flight indexes identify her on three flight segments. A contact-book entry retains her contact information. Epstein’s office attempted to reach her in 2010.

In February 2013, her name appeared among anticipated participants in quantitative investment meetings. In September of that year, she received a direct invitation from Epstein’s assistant, and her name appeared repeatedly on proposed appointment schedules.

Automated social-network activity emails mentioned her in 2014, and a third party referred to her in correspondence with Epstein in 2015.

This is a documented history of references and attempted or scheduled contact extending over multiple years.

What Has Not Been Established

The evidence does not establish that Taylor participated in Epstein’s trafficking crimes.

It does not establish that she recruited victims, arranged criminal activity, knowingly facilitated abuse, received improper payments, or concealed evidence.

The quantitative meeting schedules do not establish that she entered into financial arrangements with Epstein.

The September 2013 calendars do not conclusively establish that a private meeting occurred.

The 2014 LinkedIn notifications do not establish direct communication.

These distinctions are essential to an accurate profile.

Research Limitations and Remaining Verification

The identified evidence inventory is more extensive than a simple flight-log or contact-book profile. Nevertheless, additional work is required to authenticate the original images of all flight-log entries, fully reconcile schedule duplicates, and perform a documented corpus-wide search for alternate names and OCR variations.

The historical contact-book entry should also be matched against its original page image, rather than relying entirely on a derived name index.

For the EFTA records listed as comparison pending, their precise content and relationship to other productions must be independently established before they are treated as separate factual events.

There is no verified basis for inferring additional personal meetings or improper activity from a document count alone.

Watch Our Sleuths Investigate

No directly verified, topic-specific original YouTube investigation by EpsteinWiki’s established independent contributors was located that focused on Felicia Taylor.

Relevant future reporting should be credited by author and linked to the exact publication or recording, with original evidence citations checked before inclusion.

Generic videos about Epstein’s network are not substituted for a verified investigation of Taylor.

Conclusion

Felicia Taylor’s name appears in several types of Epstein-related documents spanning from historical flight records in 1996 to incidental correspondence in 2015.

The strongest evidence includes recorded air travel, contact information retained by Epstein, attempts by his office to contact Taylor, a February 2013 financial meeting schedule, and a September 2013 invitation to his Manhattan residence.

These records establish documented connections to Epstein’s social and professional environment but do not establish knowledge of or participation in his criminal activities.

EpsteinWiki preserves the documentary record while distinguishing confirmed evidence, proposed meetings, duplicated schedules, automated notifications, and matters that remain unverified.
