Mac was a Lt in the United States Marine Corps. Served in Beirut and
Desert Storm. Did his cold weather training in Scandinavia.
While serving in Beirut he was Injured in the 1983 Bombing,
where one of his men died as Mac tried to save him.
He is a Detective 1st Grade. Was happily married to
Claire Conrad Taylor, with whom he shared many happy years.
She was killed on 9/11 in the World Trade Center. Since then,
Mac has never been the same and will continue to pursue and
bring justice to those who take lives for granted.
Work style: Hard worker, driven, determined, ambitious and honest.
What drives Det. Taylor?
Mac is driven by the integrity and honesty of his lab, he also makes a hell of a detective. He believes in the Facts and the Evidence.He never doubts the evidence and he knows what lead to follow when it's time to take down aRelationships:
Married to Claire Conrad, widowed by the 9/11 terrorist attacks in 2001. He has only recently (Season 1) 4 years after his wife's death felt able to start dating. Went on a date with Rose at the end of season 1. Admitted to Stella that he had been on a date to a roller-derby match with an unnamed date in season 2. Season 3 opened with him dating M.E. Dr. Peyton Driscoll. In the season finale of season three, Peyton invites him to go to London with her. He seems reluctant, but after the ordeal with the Irish mob, he goes with her. In the season four premiere, Mac returns to New York alone, saying that Peyton wanted to stay in London a little longer. The relationship ended in episode 4 of season 4, when Peyton sends Mac a "Dear John" letter, explaining that she misses her home and her family, so she'll be staying in London. Later in series four, when the lab is inspected by a CSI from New Jersey, Quinn Shelby, it appears they have a history. It later emerges that the two shared a kiss while Mac's wife was alive. Quinn seems eager to see if there could be a potential relationship, now they're both single. Mac shrugs her off.

Quotes:
MIA/NYC~ NonStop (Pilot Episode)
Mac: Remember Veneziano’s theory of quantum physics: Everything is connected.
Season 1
Blink
Stella : What time did you get in?
Mac:: I never went home.
Stella: Can't sleep?
Mac: What's sleep?
Mac: (sitting in hospital with comatose victim) I'm so tired. I used to sit like this with my wife. Her name was Claire. She died on 9/11. Nobody saw it coming. I was cleaning out the closet the other day, and I... I found this beach ball. And I remembered it was my wife who blew it up. I never told anybody this, but I got rid of everything that reminded me of Claire. Too painful. The one thing I couldn't throw away was that beach ball. Her breath is still in there.
Mac: You're not a doctor. You're a murderer with a medical degree.
Creatures of the Night
Mac:: to Stella: Use your head, not your heart.
Mac: Aiden's on rodent patrol, I'm waiting to do a rat-topsy.
Rain
Stella : There's something gooey here.
Mac:: Gooey? There's a good forensic word. Gooey. I'll have to use that more
Officer Blue
Stella: We haven't had a fight like that in a long time. Reminds me of the old Mac::.
Mac:: What "old Mac::" is that?
Stella: The one who let his heart out of his chest every once in a while.
Mac:: You're a fine CSI Stella. Can honestly say I wouldn't do this job without you.
Stella: Yes you would... You just wouldn't be as good.
Mac: Maybe.
Stella: Friends?
Mac: Friends.
You shot a New York City police officer. He wasn't just a cop, he was somebody's son. He made somebody proud at home. When you shot him through the back, you shot those people through the heart. From where I stand, you're the one that should be put to death. No trial, no jury. Eye for an eye.
Tanglewood
We've got the best forensics tool money can't buy. Snow.
I'm a Marine you little punk. I've put men in the ground in foreign soil so you can sleep at night, but you wouldn't know anything about that, would ya' kid? Let me tell you something about the mob. Back in their heyday, these old timers, they dealt in death and violence, because of one thing: business. Not sport. They were smart. You punks are idiots. Tanglewood
Hush
Stella and Mac: stare at the flattened victim.
Stella : I'm going to call Hawkes.
Mac: Tell him to bring a spatula.
Crime and Misdemeanor
Stella : What do you do when you can't sleep?
Mac: Work.
Stella: What do normal people do when they can't sleep?
Tom Martin: Your tactics don't frighten me.
Mac: It's not my tactics you need to worry about. It's my results.
The Closer
Stella: Why haven't you taken your wedding ring off?
Mac: Because, uh, I don't know. I don't want to.
Mac: When the towers fell and Claire died, it was the clearest definition of what is unjust and unfair in this world, and I was powerless.
Season 2
Grand Murder at Central Station
Mac: It never ceases to amaze me how men of higher education can commit such stupid crimes.
Mac: There are three things that I'll protect at any cost. The honor of this country, the safety of this city, and the integrity of this lab.
Corporate Warriors
Mac: Don't quote me on this, Lindsay, but sometimes not everything's connected. (Lifts the head of the vic off the body)
Manhattan Manhunt
Mac: Me, I don't pity you Darius. There's a lot of people with worse stories than yours. They never hurt anyone. You killed twelve people in two states over the last seventy-two hours and you want me to feel sorry for you because your daddy didn't kiss you when you were a baby? You asked for my help. I did help you. You're where you belong. You rot in hell, you son of a bitch.*****.
Jamalot
Mac:: There's something rotten in the Kingdom of Jamalot
Supermen
Stella : When you were a little kid, did you ever tie a towel around your neck, pretend to be a superhero. A little Mac::-man?
Mac: Sergeant Rock. You couldn't get me out of fatigues when I was a kid.
Charge of this Post
Smith: How did you know what to do?
Mac:: I've lived through this moment before.
Mac: I'm glad you stayed.
Stella : That's what we do; we take care of each other.
Stay with me, Don. Stay with me.
Squeeze my hand, Don.
Season 3
Murder Sings the Blues
Science is our integrity.
Consequences
Mac: (to Flack) The cop who did this, I hope he goes away for a very long time, because he disgraced the badge we both wear.
Here is To You Mrs Azriel
He spent the last eight months in bed on a feeding tube. Eventually, the medicine didn't do anything for the pain, so one day he asked me...he begged me, to end it for him. I couldn't do it.
Sleight out of Hand
(Mac hands Danny a lighter)
Mac: You want to do the honors?
Danny: Are you lighting your arm on fire in the name of science?
Mac: What other job allows you to set your boss on fire? Going once, going twice...
" I love the smell of a cover-up"
"Feel that? That's my arm closing off your trachea!"
"Forget about all the risks of romance and enjoy the rewards!"
