Brennan Taylor is an American role-playing games author and publisher.
Brennan Taylor co-founded Indie Press Revolution with Ed Cha of Open World Press in 2004 and was its first CEO.[1] When Taylor hired Fred Hicks of Evil Hat Games as a part-time staff member, Ron Edwards left IPR claiming that that this move would make IPR less friendly to the small press games companies that it was intended to serve.[1] In 2010, Hero Games purchased Indie Press Revolution from Taylor and Cha.[1] Although Taylor stepped down as president, he maintains a minority share.[2] Taylor served as president prior to the next CEO Jason Walters.
Taylor is also the owner of Galileo Games,[1] publisher of the games Bulldogs!, Mortal Coil, and How We Came To Live Here. He is also the author of Hard Boilded Empires: Solara, Old Gods: A Mortal Coil Campaign Frame, and The Jersey Side playset for the independent RPG, Fiasco.
