Biographical History
Kimball Young (1893-1972), a grandson of Mormon leader Brigham Young, was a psychologist who studied personality disorders as well as Mormons and Mormonism.
Sociologist, historian, educator, and author.
Kimball Young (1893-1972) was born in Provo, Utah on October 26, 1893. He received his A.B. degreee from Brigham Young University, his M.A. at the University of Chicago, and his Ph.D. from Stanford University.

Chairman of the Northwestern University (Evanston, Ill.) Dept. of Sociology.
Kimball Young was born in Provo, Utah, on October 26, 1893. Although he was a grandson of Brigham Young, Kimball Young was not a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and often criticized the Mormon faith. He graduated from Brigham Young University and studied sociology at the University of Chicago before receiving a PhD in psychology from Stanford University in 1921. Young held a variety of university teaching positions, was chair of sociology at Queens College and Northwestern University in the 1940s, and served as president of the American Sociological Association in 1945. He was also the author of a number of psychology and sociology texts, including Source book for social psychology (1927), Social attitudes (1931), and An introductory sociology (1934). Young died in Provo on September 1, 1972.
The short-lived Salt Lake Daily Review newspaper was published by Frank Kenyon and M. Fenton between August 1871 and February 1872. Although ostensibly dedicated to mining and agricultural news, it was largely a vehicle for anti-Mormon sentiments and attacks on Brigham Young in pariticular. It replaced the Corrine Journal, which had been published at Corrine, Utah, the self-proclaimed "Gentile Capital of Utah."
