Remembering Gerren Taylor: A Look At The Tributes Pouring In

Baldwin Hills, which aired on BET between 2007 and 2009, followed the lives of wealthy African-American youths in the posh Baldwin Hills neighbourhood in Los Angeles over three seasons.

Taylor along with Moriah Johnson was the main focus of the series. The late actor was known for her sense of high fashion, having modelled and walked the ramp for several American labels. Notable designers included Tommy Hilfiger and Betsey Johnson.

Prior to her reality show appearance, Taylor also appeared in the 2007 documentary America the Beautiful, which took a look at the unrealistic beauty standards of the fashion industry. Having admittedly faced body image issues due to obesity, eating disorder and looks, she had been sensitive to the issue.
