- Judge and politician Anthony L. Young was born on December 11, 1948 in Chicago, Illinois. After graduating from St. Rita High School, Young married and briefly attended several Chicago area colleges before joining the United States Air Force in 1970. He enrolled at DePaul University College of Law, graduated in 1977 and was admitted to the Illinois Bar that same year. Spending the next few years in private practice, Young participated in a Cook County program that appointed private counsel to serve as public defenders in cases, such as the trial of the Pontiac Prison inmates accused of murdering three guards. All defendants in this case were acquitted. In 1984, Young was elected to the Illinois House of Representatives. In 1992, Young left the Illinois General Assembly. He later became a Judge in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Domestic Relations Division.
