Zenith Taylor has been appointed to the board of directors of The Rufus King Manor Museum. Taylor serves The New York Unified Court System as its Statewide Civic Engagement Coordinator. “Her role, in communications and promoting a connection between the public and the courts is perfect for our Museum,” said Walter Sanchez, president of the board of directors.
The museum’s curators give tours to school groups throughout the years and Zenith is set to create opportunities to enhance an understanding of the role of the courts, legal issues and aspects of the history of the courts. King Manor was once home to Rufus King, a signer of the Constitution. His son John King, once a governor of New York, lived in the House on Jamaica Avenue in the 1850s. The museum hosts an event every September where nearly fifty new people are sworn in as American citizens.
