Gladys "Glad" Robinson Youse (1898 – 1985), was an American composer.
Born in Miami, Oklahoma, Gladys Robinson graduated from Stephens College in 1919 with a music degree, then studied composition with Tibor Serly in New York. She married Clare Youse and the couple settled in Baxter Springs, Kansas, where they raised their daughter, Madolyn (1924-2018), later Mrs. Babcock, who earned her AA degree in 1944 from Stephens College and a Masters of Science Degree in Analytical Chemistry from the University of Minnesota. Glad Robinson Youse was a member of ASCAP and served on the board of the Sigma Alpha Iota Foundation in 1971.
Youse composed sacred and secular music for solo voice, choir, and piano. Today, the National Federation of Music Clubs sponsors the biennial Glad Robinson Youse Adult Composers Contest, and Stephens College offers a Glad Robinson Youse Scholarship. The Competitions and Awards Division of the Texas Federation of Music Clubs has a Glad Robinson Youse Chair.
