## Biography

Stephen Young (born Stephen Levy, 19 May 1939) is a retired Canadian actor. Born in Toronto to a financier father, he attended Forest Hill Collegiate Institute and briefly signed with the Cleveland Indians baseball team before a knee injury ended that prospect. He began acting in the early 1960s with bit parts in European films including *Cleopatra* (1963) and *The Thin Red Line* (1964), then returned to Canada for leading roles in television series such as *Seaway* (1965) as Nick King and *Moment of Truth*.

Moving to Hollywood in 1966, Young gained prominence as Ben Caldwell in the legal drama *Judd for the Defense* (1967–1969). He worked primarily as a character actor with supporting film roles including Captain Chester B. Hansen in *Patton* (1970), Gilbert in *Soylent Green* (1973) and Freddie in *The Silent Partner* (1978, credited as Stephen Levy). His later credits include *Charlie Bartlett* (2008) as Dr. Stan Weathers and guest appearances in series such as *Airwolf*, *Murder, She Wrote* and *Magnum, P.I.*. Young’s final screen role was in the 2013 film *The Angel Inn*.
