Jeri Taylor (Vice Admiral)

Jeri Taylor was a member of Starfleet in the 24th century.

In 2353, Taylor was listed on a directory placard as having an office in room 14744 on Starbase 32. (TNG: "Violations")

Additionally, she was listed as a Starfleet Command official on the dedication plaque of several starships :

• (23??) USS Pasteur (NCC-58925) (Starfleet Command: Adm. Jeri Taylor)
• (2363) USS Phoenix (NCC-65420) (Tactical Command: V. Adm. Jeri Taylor )
• (2371) USS Voyager (NCC-74656) (Starfleet Command: Jeri Taylor)
• (2373) USS Prometheus (NX-59650) (Starfleet Command: Jeri Taylor)

Her name appeared also in the USS Voyager crew manifest in 2371 and 2374. (VOY: "Projections", "The Killing Game, Part I")

According to her high rank, we must assume that she wasn't aboard the ship when it was stranded in the Delta Quadrant. She may have been assigned aboard during the test phase of the ship like Cmdr. Brannon Braga and Cmdr. Rick Berman who were also listed on the dedication plaque. Another explanation could be that the crew manifest was deliberately falsified in order to disturb aliens who tries to scan the database or board the ship, which could explain the use of the people on the dedication plaque with ranks that obviously are doubtful.
