Emily Young

[5] Her uncle was the ornithologist, conservationist and painter, Sir Peter Scott, who founded the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust.

In the late 1960s and 1970s, she travelled widely, visiting Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, France and Italy, Africa and the Middle East.

[6] She may have been the inspiration for the song "See Emily Play", written by Pink Floyd's Syd Barrett.

[5][4][7] During the 1970s and 1980s, she lived and worked with Simon Jeffes, leader of the Penguin Cafe Orchestra, and had one son, Arthur, born in 1978.

[citation needed] Young's sculpture is held in many public as well as private collections.
