‘Baldwin Hills’ Star Gerren Taylor Passes Away At Just 30 Years Old
The Los Angeles native started her modeling career at the age of 12 when she was spotted by a talent scout, according to MEAWW. She soon became known as the “new Naomi (Campbell)” and was the youngest model ever signed by the runway division of LA Models.
“[Gerren] has the height. She has the walk. And she looks natural fresh and beautiful,” LA Models President Heinz Holba told CBS News in 2003, noting the model’s 6-feet stature.
In 2007, the actor made her appearance on Baldwin Hills, a show which featured teens from the affluent Baldwin Hills district in Los Angeles. Taylor stood out as the star attraction as the show aired for three seasons. She also starred in the 2007 documentary, America is Beautiful, which focused on the country’s obsession with beauty.
When she later signed with the Ford Modeling Agency, the fashion icon worked with designers such as Tommy Hilfiger, Tracy Reese and Betsey Johnson.
