Loretta Young (January 6, 1913 – August 12, 2000) was an American actress. Starting as a child actress, she had a long and varied career in film from 1917 to 1953. She won the 1948 Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in the 1947 film The Farmer's Daughter and received an Oscar nomination for her role in Come to the Stable in 1949.

The series earned three Emmy Awards and was rerun successfully on daytime TV and later in syndication. In the 1980s Young returned to the small screen and won a Golden Globe for her role in Christmas Eve in 1986.
