Ms. Morgan began her career solely as an actress but branched out to hosting, co-hosting, and contributing editor stints on a variety of shows. Perhaps she is best known in this venue from her numerous appearances on ABC's popular 1990s precursor to HGTV, "THE HOME SHOW". Here she introduced viewers to the joys of collecting, how to keep things neat and organized, household hints, and just about anything else they asked her to do: she visited Milan for the International Furniture Design Show and she was there when they closed the door on Biosphere II. All of which contribute to her justly being crowned "Lifestyle Expert". On HGTV she guided you through garden makeovers on "SURPRISE GARDENER WITH SHELLEY TAYLOR MORGAN". You've seen her plying her lifestyle trade on the Pax network's "GREAT DAY AMERICA" and dropping in for a visit on Lifetime's highly successful interior design program, "INTERIOR MOTIVES". Prior to her gardening show, she was spokeswoman for "Three Day Blinds" and she authored a column for the glossy "Entertainment @ Home", a cutting-edge magazine devoted to bringing the world of computers to those who are still being dragged into it kicking and screaming.

In the mid 1990s, her foray into the living rooms of America had her doing just about everything at E! ENTERTAINMENT TELEVISION. She began her association with E! in August 1993 as the host of "PURE SOAP", their first ever daily live half-hour series covering all aspects of daytime drama. When the series was completed in December 1994, Morgan's popularity made it a natural to keep her as part of the E! team. She became a utility player and went on to host a variety of E! original programs including "COMING ATTRACTIONS", a weekly half-hour series of movie teasers and trailers; and "BEHIND THE SCENES", a weekly insider's look at all facets of the entertainment industry. She hosted the live coverage of both the "DAYTIME EMMYS" and the "SOAP OPERA AWARDS." She hosted E!'s annual guide to the Daytime Emmy nominations, "DAYTIME SIZZLES" and did field reporting duties for "E! NEWS DAILY". After her association with E!, she lent her expertise as celebrity guest co-host for the launch of the Family Channel's "TREASURES IN YOUR HOME" with continued duties interviewing celebrities and their favorite collectibles. All of these diverse opportunities draw upon two of Shelley's most outstanding talents -- acting and talking!

Her voice is so distinctive; a catalog sales operator knew exactly who she was before she gave her name and credit card!

Prior to her success as a tv host, daytime drama is where she enjoyed her first acting successes. Her first soap was ABC's phenomenally popular "GENERAL HOSPITAL" playing 'Lorena Sharpe' the lovely vixen who was Monica Quartermaine's cousin. When she wasn't blackmailing her spa customers, she spent her time lusting after 'Jimmy Lee Holt'. "DAYS OF OUR LIVES" was the second series for Shelley, who took over the role of 'Angelica Deveraux'.

Over Morgan's career, she's made guest star appearances on comedies and dramas such as "Archie Bunker's Place," "Big Brother Jake", "Star of the Family,", "I Married Dora", "Webster", FOX network's "The Wilton North Report", and a guest-starring role on ABC's, "ONCE AND AGAIN" where she worked once again with actor Billy Campbell with whom she co-starred in the world premier stage production, "Scenic Route: Backbone of America" at the Tiffany Theatre on the famous Sunset Boulevard.

Shelley has appeared in various feature films including "The Sword and the Sorcerer" and "My Tutor." Early on, she appeared in the made-for-television movie, "Marilyn, The Untold Story".

One of her biggest television successes was on NBC-TV's long-running "HUNTER" creating the role of 'Kitty O'Hearn' a semi-regular for two seasons. Shelley's 'Detective O'Hearn' may have appeared flakey on the surface, but that was just a 'Colombo' type ruse to hide a keen deductive mind.

Shelley's gift of gab has come in handy for celebrity appearances on 'A.M. Los Angeles". When the regular co-host became ill just prior to air time, Shelley effortlessly stepped in to host the show with Steve Edwards. She did so well, ABC brass came down to the studio during the show to shake her hand. She soon found herself in demand serving as a contributing editor on "IT'S A GREAT LIFE," "VTV", "SHOP TELEVISION NETWORK," and, of course, "THE HOME SHOW".

Shelley's stage appearances include her debut in "Steambath" at the Wightman Theatre in Long Beach; "The Mind with the Dirty Man," a Phoenix production co-starring Don Knotts, Randy Mantooth and Rue McClanahan; and the long-running comedy hit, "Aspirins and Elephants" at the Santa Monica Playhouse.
