The current address for this storefront is 122 E. Olive Avenue. Photograph caption dated January 18, 1961 reads "A school to train women in practical office techniques for jobs with Valley employers has been opened by Toni Taylor at 140 E. Olive Ave., Burbank. Miss Taylor, who also operates Equitable Employment Agency at the same location, says Valley employers said in a survey they felt high school graduates lack practical office procedures. The new Taylor Girls School will teach modern business methods and typing on IBM-Electric machines. Material used in the courses has been selected by Dr. Lawrence Erikcson and Dr. S. J. Wanous, of UCLA, Miss Taylor said. Business executives will give periodic lectures to students."
