He became popular on American radio from 1944 to 1949 with his "Alan Young Radio Show", but when radio began to lose its popularity and his show was canceled, Young decided to put together a comedy act and tour the U.S. theater circuit. After this experience, he wrote a television pilot for CBS in 1950, which resulted in The Alan Young Show (1950). In the early 1960s, Young landed his best-known role, Wilbur Post, in the popular television series Mister Ed (1961), which ran for five years on CBS. Since then, Young made a number of television and film appearances but is known primarily for his voice characterizations in cartoons, especially as Scrooge McDuck in DuckTales (1987). Young died on May 19, 2016, at the Motion Picture and Television Home in Woodland Hills, California.
