Abstract
It is shown that an idea proposed in 1996 that relates in a qualitatively correct way the interfamily mass hierarchies of the up quarks, down quarks, charged leptons, and neutrinos, can be combined with a predictive scheme recently proposed for relating quark mixing and neutrino mixing. In the resulting model, the entire flavor structure of the quarks and leptons is expressible in terms of two ``master matrices'': a diagonal matrix that gives the interfamily mass ratios, and an off-diagonal matrix that controls all flavor mixing.
