Actor and celebrity photographer Brad Everett Young has died at 46.
Young, known for appearances in Grey’s Anatomy, Boy Meets World, Charlie’s Angels, and Jurassic Park III, was killed in a fatal car crash on Los Angeles’ 134 Freeway.
According to his representative, a wrong-way driver crashed into Young’s vehicle. He was pronounced dead at the scene, while the other driver was hospitalized.
Later in his career, Young became a successful celebrity photographer, photographing stars including Sarah Michelle Gellar and David Harbour for major publications such as The Hollywood Reporter, Vanity Fair, Vogue, Elle, People, and Variety.
He also founded Dream Loud Official, an organization dedicated to restoring and preserving music and arts programs in schools across the U.S.
Friends and colleagues remembered Young as kind, generous, and relentlessly positive.
Actor Parry Shen called him “one of the kindest and most generous people” he had ever met.
Young began his career after moving to Los Angeles to attend medical school. Within a month, he landed an acting role and joined the Screen Actors Guild.
His sudden death has left friends, colleagues, and the entertainment community mourning a man remembered for both his talent and his generosity.
