Taffy Corbett grew up in Pennsylvania and Florida in a house with lots of kids (2 brothers, 2 sisters and friends) and lots of pets which became her inspiration for her illustrations. Her father was a businessman and is a talented painter and her mother was a stay at home mom and great art critic for her family. Her mother was also an expert weaver, seamstress, knitter, craftsman and teacher of creativity which planted the seed for Taffy's art career.

She attended high school in Neptune Beach Florida and then graduated from the University of North Florida with a Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design. She later moved to Scottsdale, Arizona where she worked as a production artist for a small daily newspaper, the Scottsdale Progress, where she learned how to layout and design newspaper advertisements. She then worked for Jostens Learning Corporation as a graphic designer and art director for 4 years and has now had her own design studio for 16 years working as a designer and illustrator.

Taffy designs such things as websites, blogs, logos, annual reports, and brochures, and illustrates packaging, stickers, greeting cards, and children's books. She's married to Peter Corbett who is a reporter and columnist for the Arizona Republic. They have two children, Kelly and Austin, and enjoy doing anything with them! Her children have now become her inspiration for a children's book that she is writing and illustrating. As a family they play tennis and baseball, hike, and snowboard. Taffy's other hobbies include reading and running. And, of course...they love animals!
