Sir Charles Lawrence Young, 7th Baronet (31 October 1839 – 11 September 1887) was an English playwright, barrister, and baronet.
Life and career
Young was the son of Sir William Young. He was educated at Cheltenham College and New College, Oxford, graduating BA in 1862. He entered the Inner Temple in 1862, and was called to the bar in 1865.
As a playwright his best known and most successful work was Jim the Penman (1866); a play young based on a real master criminal, James Townshend Saward, who had success as a forger.
