Howard E. Young (March 12, 1871 – October 3, 1945), was the first African American licensed as a pharmacist in Maryland. Young was born in Baltimore to Reverend Alfred and Emma J. Young. He was educated at M Street High School in Washington, D.C., then he received a degree in pharmacy at Howard University. After finishing postgraduate studies at Howard, Young returned to Baltimore in 1895, where he worked as a drug clerk at a pharmacy in the Seton Hill neighborhood. Shortly, Young opened his own pharmacy on the upper floors of a Y.M.C.A. building in the Madison Park neighborhood at 417 W. Hoffman Street using $100 of his own money. He later expanded to larger corner store located at 1100 Druid Hill Avenue, which opened on May 26, 1900. Five years later, Young married Estelle Hall. They had three children: Howard, Charles, and N. Louise Young.
