Michael Emlyn Young (born October 16, 1945) is a Welsh Emmy and BAFTA Award-winning producer, director and screenwriter currently based in Los Angeles, California that has served as one of the executive producers of "Chloe's Closet". He is also the founder of Mike Young Productions, which is currently now known as Splash Entertainment, which also is a majority owner of Popular AVOD network Kabillion.
Young was born in Cwm, Ebbw Vale, Gwent, and has been trained as a television producer. While working as an advertising copywriter, he met his wife Liz Young. After the pair married in the 1970s, Young's stepson Richard Finn (later head of post-production at MYP), was having trouble falling asleep. Young invented stories about a teddy bear and Finn told his school friends the stories, which resulted in the SuperTed books, co-produced with Young.
In 1981, Young, along with his wife, animator Dave Edwards and producer Robin Lyons, founded Siriol Productions. They approached the newly formed Welsh TV channel S4C and secured a commission to produce an animated series of SuperTed. Due to the success of the initial series, it was re-dubbed in English. A special edition was made for the Welsh Office which instructed children on the "dos" and "don'ts" of road safety. The series sold well in the UK, and was followed by more ambitious series. Young found it difficult to sell his series to Hollywood executives without a local presence there so in 1989 the family moved to Los Angeles, selling their rights to SuperTed and shares owned in Siriol Animation to finance the move and to set up Mike Young Productions, now called Splash Entertainment.
Young's company has also created a series of caricatures at Cardiff City Stadium. As a football fanatic, he is a lifelong supporter of Cardiff City F.C., and runs a junior soccer league in California. Young was awarded the Chancellor's Medal at the 2007 graduation ceremony of the University of Glamorgan.
