Biographical History

Brown was an American author born in Louisville, Ky. in 1900. He graduated from Harvard College in 1923. He was drama critic for the New York Evening Post (1929-1941) and New York World (1941-1942) and was a columnist and editor for Saturday Review (1944-1969). He served as a lieutenant in the United States Navy beginning in 1942 and took part in the invasions of Africa, Sicily, and Normandy. Brown also served on the Pulitzer Prize drama jury in 1963 but resigned when the advisory board refused his recommendation of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf. Brown died in 1969 after a short illness.
