Born in Twickenham, Middlesex, UK, in 1875, Young wrote 50 novels between 1910 and 1941. Her early works were often about the English in . Her novel, Myles Calthrope I. D. B, was filmed as "Thou Art the Man" in 1920. A Mistaken Marriage (1908) contains highly negative Jewish characters, as do many novels about of that period, in connection with illegal diamond selling. The main character is said by the heroine to have "the ugliest smile she had ever seen distort a human face." Noting the publication of The Purple Mists, The Spectator comments in 1914 that it features "a strong, silent man", and adds: "Miss Young writes with remarkable fluency and has a strong grip of the plot." At least one of her novels was translated into German.
She died in Three Anchor Bay, Cape Town, on 6th November 1945.
