Young \u003c\/strong\u003ewas an Emeritus Professor of Physics at Carnegie Mellon University. He earned both his undergraduate and graduate degrees from that university. He earned his PhD in fundamental particle theory under the direction of the late Richard Cutkosky. Dr. Young joined the faculty of Carnegie Mellon in 1956 and retired in 2004. He also had two visiting professorships at the University of California, Berkeley.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDr Young's career was centred entirely on undergraduate education. He wrote several undergraduate-level textbooks, and in 1973 he became a co-author with Francis Sears and Mark Zemansky for their well-known introductory textbooks. In addition to his role in Sears and Zemansky's \u003ci\u003eUniversity Physics\u003c\/i\u003e, he was the author of Sears and Zemansky's \u003ci\u003eCollege Physics\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e Philip W.
