Milburn Taylor, a native Texan from the Dallas/Fort Worth area, is an advertising
design graduate of Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles, California (1972) and University of North Texas in Denton, Texas (1968).

Milburn has held a variety of creative positions at nationally recognized advertising
agencies and design studios before starting Milburn Taylor Associates/Creative Services in Fort Worth, Texas (1978).

"Byrdtales" comes from Milburn's longtime interest in using "cute" little birds in many of his advertising projects. The characters are fun, friendly and have always been appropriate when used to make a point. Drawing a cartoon panel seemed to be a natural way to further express Milburn's observations of the world around us. Although the characters have been around for more than 30 years, "Byrdtales" is new.

Milburn Creative
Because of his lifelong interest in humor, Milburn developed a specialty using cartoon art and humorous illustration as a creative tool to help promote business and special events. In 1981 Milburn moved his family and aspirations to Austin, Texas where he opened
MILBURN CREATIVE / Promotion & Graphics. As a way of providing a greater focus on his first love: highly personalized services for his clients, the business became MILBURN TAYLOR / Illustration and Desgn.

Over the years Milburn has become uniquely qualified to help business owners, public relation professionals, and marketing directors "think through" their projects. He always looks  for “natural solutions” in client projects—then he adds a creative twist to make the results more effective and memorable.

The strength in many of Milburn's designs comes from his ability to add warmth and personality to a client's marketing materials. He has the strong belief that people enjoy knowing who they are working with. As he often says, "People like doing business with people they like."

Clients have included local and regional advertising agencies, public relation firms, banks, real estate companies, chambers of commerce, and small business owners, as well as national and international companies.

Milburn brings an diversity of national and international perspectives to his work as a result of on his travel experiences. Milburn and his wife, Ruth, a Professor of Marketing, at Texas State University, have had the privilege of traveling throughout the United States, Canada, China, Japan, Mexico, England, Europe, Morocco, Costa Rica and most recently Peru.

Milburn and Ruth have two sons who also live in Austin, Texas.
