Jan Taylor (born 1942) was Miss Australia 1964.
Taylor had three brothers, Paul (b. 1939); Gerald (b. 1947) and Jim (born 1956). She was educated at St. Rita's College and in the 1960s worked as a television script assistant in Brisbane.[1]
Early Miss Australia competitions were rather conservative, and Taylor was cleared to compete only after approval from her local priest.[2] Her prizes at Miss Australia 1964 included a £750 dress, a car, and a world tour.[1]
