Popular, prize-winning English author who published eleven novels that dealt with middle-class domesticity. Ironically, her own domestic life had to be kept secret. A suffragette and wife of a lawyer, she began an affair with Ralph Henderson, Headmaster of the public school Alleyn's, and they remained lovers for the rest of her life. After her husband was killed in the Battle of Ypres in 1917, Young actually moved to London to join Henderson and his wife in a ménage a trois, although occupying a separate part of their house. After Mrs. Henderson's death, they moved together to Bradford on Avon, though they never married. On Young's death, Henderson endowed the EH Young Prize for Greek Thought, an essay prize awarded annually at Bristol Grammar School.

Her sister was the actress Gladys Young
