Enid Georgiana Stamp Taylor (12 June 1904 – 13 January 1946) was an English actress.[3]

Taylor first became known when she won a beauty pageant at a young age and this led to parts in musical comedies on stage, including The Cabaret Girl (1922), in which she was billed as simply "Enid Taylor". She progressed to film, appearing in Alfred Hitchcock's Easy Virtue (1928), Queen of Hearts (1934), and The Wicked Lady (1945).[4]

The Stamp part of her name was included as a middle name; it was her grandmother's maiden name. Taylor married Sidney Colton and they had a daughter called Robin Anne.[5] She died from a blood clot to her brain after a fall at her apartment two months after the release of her final film, The Wicked Lady.
