Gold Fish (Aired March 20, 1945)<.B>
By age 13, Young had become a radio performer, and by age 17, he was writing and performing in his own radio show for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. The show was broadcast in the U.S. and led to an invitation to New York in 1944, as a summer replacement for Eddie Cantor, which resulted in Young getting his own radio show, orininally broadcast from New York and later from Hollywood. While initially gaining success on his "Alan Young Radio Show," Young's popularity waned as he lost control over his show's scripts and radio was being replaced by television. When his radio show was cancelled in 1947, Young decided to put together a comedy act and tour the U.S. theater circuit, playing such houses as the Chicago Theatre, the Fox in Detroit, and the Strand on Broadway.
