Sara Marie Taylor (born September 15, 1974 in Dubuque, Iowa) was Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Political Affairs at the White House, making her one of George W. Bush's top political aides until her resignation in 2007. She reported directly to Karl Rove. After she resigned from the Bush administration citing a desire to seek employment outside of government, the House and Senate Judiciary Committees approved subpoenas for Taylor to testify regarding her involvement in the controversy surrounding the dismissal of U.S. Attorneys.

Taylor is the daughter of Ray Taylor, a former Iowa state representative, and a graduate of Drake University with a B.S. in Finance. She is currently engaged.

During her time at Drake, Taylor held the position of National Co-Chairman of the College Republicans, and she worked on the Bush presidential campaign in 2004.
