About Young Kim Books
Young Kim grew up on Long Island, New York, before studying history at Yale University. After teaching English for one year in the former East Germany, she then completed the first year of law school at NYU, before abandoning it in favor of her passion for the creative world. This led her to Paris where she studied fashion at Studio Berçot. During her second year in Paris, she met Malcolm McLaren and immediately commenced a romantic relationship. After a stint in the fashion world, including as an editor of V Magazine/Visionaire, she started working exclusively with McLaren in 2000.
