Born in Corpus Christi, Texas, Young attended Incarnate Word Academy and Corpus Christi College-Academy. He earned his B.A. at St. Edward's 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 his 1976 when a former female member of his staff, Colleen Gardner, accused him of requiring her to have sex in order to keep her job.[1] Young was married with five children at the time. His wife, Jane, committed suicide on July 13, 1977 by a gunshot to the head.[2] The scandal caused his defeat to Joseph P. Wyatt, Jr. in the primary election in 1978[3] and he left office in 1979. Afterwards, he worked as a consultant until his death on January 22, 2002. He was interred at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia.
Katie Jane Evans, formerly a top British model, has committed suicide earlier in October but the news has only been published on Oct. 25. Katie Jane Evans was the wife of Danny Huston. Danny Huston is the son of John Huston, a director.

Katie Jane Evans had filed for divorce in 2007. Danny Huston gave her $22, 000 p.m, as alimony and they shared the custody of Stella Huston, their daughter. Danny Huston’s half-sister, Anjelica Huston, was shocked by the tragic death of Katie Jane Evans. Danny Huston was also grieving.

Evans was rumored to have experienced hardship coping with being the wife of an actor. Evans was often separated from Danny Huston as he left to work on his film projects. Katie Jane Evans was alleged to have drug and alcohol addictions. Evans supposedly dialed the police to tell them she took an overdose of sleeping pills. Before police reached her apartment, Katie Jane Evans had jumped off the building.
Congressman John Young wife Jane Committed Suicide, The Honorable John A. Young was accused by a former congressional secretary of putting sexual pressures on her and paying her more money after she reluctantly submitted to his sexual advances. The New York Times had heard that the Justice Department was investigating allegations that the secretary, Colleen Gardner, had charged that Young exerted pressure on her to have sexual relations. Nothing came of these charges, because Gardner couldn’t supply prosecutors with any evidence to corroborate her story.

Gardner then spoke to the Times and said that Young, married with five children, elaborated.

Young vigorously denied Gardner’s charges: “I’d deny it if it were true, but the fact is, I didn’t.” (Click here for other examples of “Lyin’ Through Their Teeth”).

Gardner joined Young’s staff in 1970, and was paid $8,500 annually. A good salary in those days as a beginning staffer. She didn’t have too much to do, and asked for more work. “‘Maybe four days out of the week I had nothing to do,’ she said, adding that she spent much of her time in Mr. Young’s private office, where they would ‘talk about sex for hours and hours.’” [For other pearls of wisdom, check the Quote Board].

Soon her salary was bumped up to $25,800. Of all the congressional staffers for the Texas delegation (464 aides), only 27 had a higher salary than Gardner, and 21 of those were administrative assistants (or chiefs of staff).

Gardner said she never had sexual relations with Young in the congressional office, by made at least 32 visits to nearby motels over a 16-month period. Young often registered under the phony name of “George Denton.”
