Joe Young (born July 4, 1889 in New York City, died April 21, 1939 New York City) was a songwriter from the 1920s. During World War I, he toured Europe, entertaining troops as a singer. He wrote his first major hit, "Don't Blame it all on Broadway", in 1914. His longtime partnership with Sam M. Lewis began in 1916 and would last until 1930, after which he would never collaborate with another lyricist.
Later in the film, when Joe is brought to a California animal preserve, the gala event speaker begins his introduction of Joe by saying, "The world began as a garden..." The tempters (serpent) in this story are the poachers who use their financial influence to tempt others to obtain their evil goals.
In the Disney film Mighty JoeYoung is used as a symbol of endangered animals world wide and placed in the context of the biblical Eden.
