Biography* Clement Calhoun Young was born in 1869, and began his career as a teacher. His students at Lowell High School in San Francisco nick-named him "C-Square." In 1912, Young was a delegate to the Bull-Moose convention in Chicago. Prior to his election as Governor he served in the State Assembly and as Lt. Governor. It was during his term that it was decided to complete portraits of all statehood governors to hang in the halls of the capitol. However, Young refused "to be done in oils and hung," stating that as long as he was there, a picture of him would be "altogether superfluous." Young established commissions to address the major issues of the day, and worked to add to the state's surplus. His re-election campaign poster read, "Re-Elect C.C. Young - He left $31 million in the treasury." An active member of the Sierra Club, the photography for the poster was done by Ansel Adams. Administration under Governor C. C.
