Young JohnAndrew Biography

American Democratic politician from Texas who served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1957 to 1979. Young earned his B.A. at St. Edwards University in 1937 and his L.L.B from the University of Texas School of Law in 1940. After starting his career as a lawyer, he served in the United States Navy from 1941 to 1945. Young served as a lawyer for Nueces County, Texas in various positions, as assistant county attorney in 1946, assistant district attorney from 1947 to 1950, county attorney from 1951 to 1952 and county judge from 1953 to 1956. He ran successfully as a Democrat for the U.S. House of Representatives in 1956, defeating incumbent John J. Bell in the primary election and winning the general election. He took seat in 1957 and was reelected ten times. Young came under fire in 1976 when a former female member of his staff, Colleen Gardner, accused him of requiring her to have sex with him in order to keep her job. Young was married with five children at the time. His wife, Jane, committed suicide on 13 July 1977 by a gunshot to the head. The scandal caused his defeat to Joseph P. Wyatt, Jr. in the primary election in 1978 and he left office in 1979. Afterwards, he worked as a consultant until his death on 22 January 2002, aged 85. Link to Wikipedia biography
