'''Steve Taylor''' is [[Brittany Taylor]]'s father, as well as the father of [[Brian Taylor]]. He is seen in the Taylor family portrait in "[[The Daria Database]]", and also in the episodes "[[The Old and the Beautiful]]," "[[Groped by an Angel]]" and "[[Art Burn]]." His ex-wife (and Brittany's mother) is [[Vivian Taylor]] and his current wife is [[Ashley-Amber Taylor]]. He is an ad executive (as revealed in The Daria Database) who met Ashley-Amber when she was a spokesmodel for a beer company.

Steve's personality is somewhat crude and irritable. He seems especially impatient with his son Brian, though he seems to favor Brittany, throwing her a party and giving her an expensive present in "Groped by an Angel." (He had apparently thrown Brian a party recently too, but seemed bitter about that fact.) He apparently collects a lot of art work, including one of the reproductions Jane made in "Art Burn".

==In Fanfiction==

Steve is often portrayed negatively in fanfiction, given his obvious lack of parenting skills and generally unpleasant behavior. One exception is [[Kristen Bealer]]'s "[A Monster in the Unmaking]" which is about him realizing what he has done wrong in his life.
