Interview With Judge David Young
Monday March 10, 2008
Judge David Young may burst into spontaneous song on the bench, but he's no understudy in the courtroom. The former Miami-Dade County Circuit Court judge has always fantasized about being a performer—he just never imagined his dream would manifest in the courtroom. In 2007, he became the latest of an all-star cast of daytime judges with his show Judge David Young.
What gives Young stage appeal? He's compassionate. He's openly gay.
I took a tour of the Sony Pictures set where Judge Young tapes his show. After the proceedings, I took an aside with Judge Young to talk about being an openly gay judge on the bench (and national television), how he manages to separate his emotions from the law, and the secret to his 13-year relationship with partner, Judge Scott Bernstein. My interview with Judge David Young.
