Cynthia Taylor Krier, known as Cyndi Taylor Krier (born July 12, 1950), is an attorney, lobbyist, and Republican former politician in San Antonio, Texas. She served in the Texas State Senate from District 26 from 1985 to 1993 and as the administrative judge of Bexar County from 1993 to 2001. Her husband, attorney Joseph Roland "Joe" Krier (born 1946), is a former long-term president of the Greater San Antonio Chamber of Commerce.
Krier was born in Beeville in Bee County in south Texas to Robert Stevens Taylor (1914–1978) and the former Mary McGuffin (1916–2002). Her parents divorced when she was eight years of age, and she relocated with her mother to Dinero, an unincorporated community in Live Oak County near George West, Texas. There, her maternal grandfather and then her grandmother served as postmaster. That post office has since been closed because of the lack of population in Dinero. Krier's mother was for thirty years a postal employee in Beeville. In 2008, on the recommendation of U.S. Representative Lamar Smith and the Texas congressional delegation, the post office 10250 John Saunders Road in San Antonio was named for Krier.
Krier was an honor student and a basketball player. She attended San Antonio College and then Trinity University, both in San Antonio, before she transferred to the University of Texas at Austin to major in journalism. In Austin, she began working in the campaigns of various Republican candidates. After graduation from UT in 1971, she was subsequently employed by the Republican Party of Texas and edited a statewide newsletter. Thereafter, in 1975, she obtained her Juris Doctor degree from the University of Texas School of Law in Austin.
