,About the Author Hugh D. Young




Hugh D. Young is Emeritus Professor of Physics at Carnegie
Mellon University. He earned both his undergraduate and gradu-
ate degrees from that university. He earned his Ph.D. in funda-
mental particle theory under the direction of the late Richard
Cutkosky. He joined the faculty of Carnegie Mellon in 1956 and
retired in 2004. He also had two visiting professorships at the
University of California, Berkeley.
Dr. Young’s career has centered entirely on undergraduate
education. He has written several undergraduate-level textbooks,
and in 1973 he became a coauthor with Francis Sears and Mark
Zemansky for their well-known introductory texts. In addition to
his authorship of Sears & Zemansky’s College Physics, he is also
coauthor, with Roger Freedman, of Sears & Zemansky’s University
Physics.
Dr. Young earned a bachelor’s degree in organ performance
from Carnegie Mellon in 1972 and spent several years as Associ-
ate Organist at St. Paul’s Cathedral in Pittsburgh. He has played
numerous organ recitals in the Pittsburgh area. Dr. Young and his
wife, Alice, usually travel extensively in the summer, especially
overseas and in the desert canyon country of southern Utah.
