Robert Young (acteur)

Robert Young

Robert Young (Chicago, 22 februari 1907 – Westlake Village, 21 juli 1998) was een Amerikaans acteur. Hij speelde tussen 1931 en 1952 in 100 films. Daarna begon hij aan een succesvolle televisiecarrière, die tot 1988 duurde. Hij is het bekendst door zijn rollen in Father Knows Best (1954 tot 1963) en Marcus Welby M.D (1969 tot 1988).

Alhoewel hij goed-ontwikkelde sociale personages neerzette op het witte doek had Young zelf last van depressies en alcoholisme. Hij leed ook aan een chemische imbalans die leidde tot een zelfmoordpoging in 1991.
