He studied art at the University of North Carolina from 1944 to 1946 and graduated from the University of Missouri in 1947. Youngerman moves to Paris. He enrolled at the École des Beaux-Arts, where he studied with Jean Souverbie. From 1948 onwards, he formed lifelong friendships with his compatriot Ellsworth Kelly, as well as with Eduardo Paolozzi, Arman, César and François Morellet. In 1950, he married 18-year-old actress Delphine Seyrig. That same year, Jack Youngerman presented his first exhibition, Les Mains éblouies, at the Galerie Maeght in Paris. He visited the studios of Constantin Brancusi and Jean Arp with Kelly, and found himself influenced by their sense of organic form. He meets Alexander Calder through his father-in-law, Henri Seyrig. In December 1956, he returns to the USA in NYC, south of Manhattan. His friends and neighbors in this artistic colony included Ellsworth Kelly, Robert Indiana, Agnes Martin and Lenore Tawney, as well as Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg and Jim Rosenquist, all of whom were unknown at the time. He designed the sets for the American version of Jean Genet's play Haute Surveillance ("Deathwatch"), presented Off-Broadway in New York in October 1958. In December 1958, the major "Sixteen Americans" exhibition at MoMA, organized by Dorothy Miller, brought him and other painters of his generation, including Ellsworth Kelly, Robert Rauschenberg and Frank Stella, their recognition. He left the Betty Parsons Gallery in 1971 for the Pace Gallery. In 1982, he joined the Washburn Gallery, where he remained until his death. In February 1986, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York devoted a retrospective to his work.
