About Glen Taylor

Glen Taylor bought a wedding service business for $2 million in 1975 and turned it into Taylor Corp., a printing firm with over $2 billion in sales.

Taylor, who worked at the wedding business throughout college, stepped down as CEO of Taylor Corp. in 2015; he remains chairman.

A Minnesotan, Taylor owns stakes in the state's NBA team, the Timberwolves; WNBA team, the Lynx; and the United FC soccer team.
