Apparently she worked at Howard University:
" ... at Howard University, under Dr. Marie Clark Taylor, chair of the botany department."

In a report from the Institute of Botany at Cornell University from the summer of 1956:

"Marie Taylor (Howard Univ.) was chairman of a committee on educational problems, which discussed textbooks, lab. manuals, sources of Kodachromes, photographic techniques, educational films, etc. At the end of their committee sessions, members drew up an exchange list of plant materials which they could make available to other members throughout the year.

Mentioned in the book "Black Women Scientists in the United States" by Wini Warren -- which you may be able to order through your local library system.

Otherwise, she's pretty elusive on the Internet!
