Waldemar was a grandson of Brigham Young. He was also a brother of Mahonri Young. Young joined the staff of the Salt Lake Herald after he graduated from High School. He then went to Stanford University starting in 1900. At Stanford he played on the football team. He majored in English but also studied economics and history. Young did not finish his studies at Stanford. Instead he took jobs with the San Francisco Chronicle and the San Francisco Examiner. In 1912 Young married Elizabeth Haight, who was a great-niece of early California Mormon leader, Sam Brannan. Young started into films by writing comedy routines for Franklyn Farnum and Brownie Vernon. In the 1920s he often worked on films with Lon Chaney, Tod Browning and their editor Errol Taggart. In the 1930s Young wrote several screen plays for Cecil B. De Mille." (from Wikipedia); Signed by Notable Personage, Unrelated.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Boards (HB) in good condition. Ex-Lib with 6 stickers, card and branch shipment sticker inside front cover , and tape and white sticker bottom of spine.1 of 1,500 copies printed. Music by Edward Harris. Birds of Rhiannon is the twenty-ninth Grove Play of the Bohemian Club of San Francisco. The action of the play is laid in legendary Britain of the Sixth Century, A.D. This is the Britain of King Arthur; and, whilst the present play is wholly imaginative, there has been a free use of characters from both the Welsh and the French streams of the Arthurian legend. Taliessin, Adaon, Aneirin and the bardic hierarchy derive altogether from the Welsh; Dagonet, occurring nowhere in the Welsh Arthuriad, is a minor character of the French; Merlin and Kay are importantly of both. Rhiannon's fabulous birds antedate by uncounted centuries the appearance of the Arthurian motif in Welsh mythology. Against this enchanted background the present grove play attempts a development of the major theme of the fellowship of man. 96 pages.
